On The Shoulders Of Giants: Y Combinator Demo Day Brings The Future To Computer History Museum
Every year, Y Combinator Demo Day, where the latest batch of incubated startups make their pitch to investors, seems to get a little bigger. Now, for the first time since the event began in 2005, it's moving to a new home the Computer History Museum.At the last Demo Day, in August (they're held twice a year), you could already sense that the gathering was outgrowing YC headquarters in Mountain View. Organizers pushed out the walls to accommodate a larger audience, and in order to speed through the 63 presenters (an increase of nearly 50 percent), each company was limited to a few minutes of speaking, meaning they had to give rapid-fire pitches instead of full demos. There was even a tiny stage erected for the demos.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/yV_b1S2Z3RM/
