As we work on our platform and our development team becomes more defined, we have an opportunity approaching us that could give us visibility with the investment community and a great place to launch our site, Politics4all. That opportunity is TechCrunch50. Although I haven’t discussed applying to TechCrunch with our team, but when we do I will need buy in from everyone in order to make this happen.
TechCrunch50 takes the 50 best companies they can find and allows them to launch their new products at the conference. They will provide the place to connect with the media, investment and business communities that can help these companies succeed. They say the 40 start-ups that launched at last year’s event have now raised over an estimate of $143 million.
We’ll see how it goes and I’ll up this post when I have more news.
UPDATE: We made it into the Demo Pit at TechCrunch50 so we’re headed to San Francisco. Go Team Go!
