We did it! We graduated our 2nd batch of _amazing_ WebFWD teams this week!
We started with a pre-graduation pitch panel, putting our teams in front of some of the sharpest minds in investment, pitching and public speaking there are. On Tuesday, our teams got grilled by:
The feedback was intense, which was the point. Our teams recovered at La Mar before heading home to watch themselves (and the feedback) on video before the Big Day.
How would you feel if this group was staring like this at YOU while you pitched?
Then Wednesday happened. They practiced. They shared with Mozillians. And then they presented to the world! About 80 people turned out at our Mountain View HQ + others tuned into the live stream, tweeted and then mixed with the teams afterwards.
In addition to the pitches, attendees at graduation learned that one of our teams raised a round of funding and another one was acquired.
Overall a super successful event (we haven’t even mentioned the food and booze ;). You can check out some of our photos here.
Our success, of course, owes largely to everyone else who supports us! Here’s how you can help:
Stay tuned for more news from our alums and our new batch of teams, to be announced in the next few weeks!
Warm regards,
