Berlin: Two “finals”, two weeks in a row!

Here’s the latest earthfaves report. :-)

We were selected (among hundreds of applicants from all over Europe) to move on to the finals for Mini SeedCamp, Berlin on June 9th – a really well organized event, I must say. In the morning, the top 20 teams pitched their ideas (5 minute elevator format) – and after hearing all of them, we had a long afternoon of “roundtable” discussions with mentors (including various VCs, successful entrepreneurs, lawyers, etc.) and got some very valuable feedback from them all. The amount of contacts we made at SeedCamp was tremendous – business angels, VCs, experienced business owners – you name it! If you’re an entrepreneur, this is an event you definitely shouldn’t miss. TechCrunch Europe posted an article about all of the teams, and the winners circle. http://uk.techcrunch.com/2009/06/09/seedcamp-berlin-so-which-startups-won/

Then on the June 18th, Markus pitched at “Sprungbrett 2009″ (LaunchPad 2009) – a competition for new online innovations for the tourism industry. Again, we were selected into the top 10! Another great experience – even more contacts to experts in the tourism industry – and even more proof that earthfaves is really moving forward!!
