How to make a project, the right investor?
Everyone knows: a project focused on the needs of a particular customer, at times increases its chances of being bought or receiving investments.
Recently, an increasing interest in start-ups is increasingly shown by large Internet companies.
And although the monsters of the IT market can afford to buy another large company along with all of its traffic or a running Internet business, they still prefer pre-projects.
Large Internet companies are always strategic investors. Buying other projects, they first of all solve the problems of their business, be it the audience, traffic or product properties of the project.

Why?
A strategic investor is more willing to invest in projects at the prototype stage, because:
- A prototype will be cheaper than a ready-made project that has been in the market for a long time.
- the prototype is easier to adapt to the needs of the investor
- a project just starting to enter the market is easier to integrate into the overall business process.
Startup Weekend is a place where everyone can make a project prototype from an idea and surround it with a team of developers.
The first to be interested in prototypes (and teams that are ready to develop them) was Yandex.
Yandex is interested in the following areas:
- analysis, structuring of personal (mail, subscriptions, etc.) and general information flow (news, blogs, etc.), for example, using data extraction technology;
- new interface solutions for web services and applications;
- processing and presentation of personal data in various fields (finance, medicine, documents, etc.);
- methods of studying user behavior on the Internet, advertising technologies.
Do you have a project that fits this description, but did you even think of offering it to Yandex? Think about it: perhaps it’s worth “finishing” and offering it to a specific investor!
You do not have a project suitable for Yandex, but do you have an idea? If you like to solve difficult tasks, come to Startup Weekend, bring an idea, put together a team, develop a prototype and - go ahead to meet a brighter future (and Yandex).
