IPAN Launch Event

Yesterday I attended the IPAN Launch Event. It was the second Launch event we hosted. The first one was in 2006 and had a similar set-up: a lot of projects and companies about to launch present their companies at small tables in a big room. People walk around and get personal demos and presentations.

We also had a jury (Johan van Mil, Han Gerrits and Boris Veldhuijzen van Zanten) who spoke with all the companies and chose a winner. The winner was YelloYello.nl who received an Apple iPod Shuffle.

This is a photo of the BlogAds.nl table. Polle de Maagt was there talking to people about their product. The table looked really good with all those papers and bright light.

Other companies that presented themselves were: Fleck, Swoot, T-signers, Zygomatics, Start 1-2, Tomap, Rasasa, Ted/Snackbar, Sync, Butterfly, Original Signal / Stillpoint, 14dayz, Leadz and a few others I forget…

Also present were a few journalists and publishers so I’m expecting some stories to appear today. And here they are:
IDG Blog: “Internet is (weer) echt hip; de IPAN Launch 2007”
Sprout: “Internetondernemers vol hoop”
Marketingfacts: “IPAN Launch Event: Gouden Gids killer beste concept”
BlueAce: “IPAN Launch Event 2007: projects du jour!”
Cafe del Marketing: “IPAN Launch Event 2007”
Dutch Cowboys: “Terugblik IPAN Launch Event 2007”
Volkskrant Banen: “Internethype zonder gekheid“
