At the exhibition organized within the framework of the competition, 38 semi-finalists presented their projects, from which 12 participants of the final were selected.


This year the final of the Web Ready contest was held in the format of the Investment Forum. While the jury determined the best projects among the
Web Ready finalists.

For the guests of the final, a special guest of Yandex co-founder Ilya Segalovich was organized on the topic
“Is there life after the IPO?” .

At the event site in the morning, a special space for investors to interact with innovative projects was organized - VC Corner. Here 110 entrepreneurs got the opportunity to present their projects to investors within 1 minute, of which 45 start-ups later, investors set up 10-minute meetings.


The time was strictly regulated and our employee tracked violating the rules of startups.

In total, more than 500 people took part in the Investment Forum and the Web Ready Final.

It was all on December 2: a platform for communication with investors and representatives of the IT community, an exhibition of projects, a speech by Ilya Segalovich and a competitive program. I would like to hear your opinion. How important is it to hold such events in Russia? What needs to be added to the program? What speaker would you like to see (Russian / foreign)?
All proposals will be taken into account and next year the organizing committee will try to create an even more significant event in the IT industry. And everyone who leaves a comment expects a bonus in the form of an invitation to the finals of the investment forum and the Web Ready 2012 contest =))
