TechCrunch50 - First Impressions
First impressions are not a fountain. What not particularly like
1. Weifai was dead. This is very strange in America at the leading technology industry conference. I had to run to the hotel to drop a very important mail.
2. Due to the fact that a lot of people, VIS per unit area of the conference is very small. Maybe on other days it will be better. I somehow got used to the conference with the number of participants of 100-300 people and a couple of dozen investors there will not be lost, and here 10 investors for 2000 hungry start-ups from all over the world ....
3. As in the past year, the system of selection of projects for the competition is not very clear. Companies take part in the demo pite, much stronger than the main part. Sometimes it just becomes funny.
4. The panels are generally strong, but I must say that they are stronger and more thoughtful at ARCH.
5. Two Ukrainian companies are participating in the demopod - SenderOk and ClienteQ.
Let's see what will happen in the evening and tomorrow. For 3k usd + ticket + hotel service is unsatisfactory, many expectations were not met.
What pleases is that our entrepreneurs have a lot to learn. Focus on markets and business models. I will try to write to the blog (dennydov.livejournal.com), but access to LJ access is completely bad pictures will be later
I get sms to watch videos online. Probably on techcrunch50.com there is information.
')
Ps. At the end of the day, investors came. And even tortured those who put up questions that pleased. Interviewed 10 companies, each of them received 4-10 very interesting contacts.
Here are some of the first reviews
Spent the entire day at the tc50. perhaps the most poorly organized conference in a long time. All day long Food for $ 3K? yeah I wasn’t “for” but it’s a bit less rust it was expected; this was just poor management. very poor choice of venue; 1 small bathroom for 1500+ people (its mens)? It is not possible to hear them. It was a lot of money and it definitely had a better experience. Peter Thiel's interview was a disaster. Hopefully next 2 days will be better.
