Each edition of iDrink has something new and something special. We try to make sure you come for a good reasons beyond drinks and good time.
Last Thursday for iDrink06 you had the chance to see the Demo of 2 new web services still very young. Services that will probably be covered in big blogs one day. Yalicoo a Financial Game Community and Velingo a search community service (Thanks to Eran for the help).
Below some pics accompanied by the music of Donald Byrd. Click on them to make them bigger (play with volume to stop music)
But if you had paid more attention there were a few different things worth noticing
- We had a super cool Flyer with a signature (the one above). Thanks to Adi from todepoint for his talent.
- A special guest was there: the iPhone . A shame if you missed it
- I was happy to see the ratio girls/boys this time was better
- it was easier to spot investors/entrepreneurs thanks to the stickers
- We had the honor to welcome Guy Zohar that introduced the two companies mentioned above
- There was close to 200 participants.
- iDrink social network has now passed the bar of 400 registered members. this is huge
- I assisted live at least 3 potential recruitment/partnerships
- Startups were there but also VCs, journalists, bloggers, futur entrepreneurs, recruiters, curious guys
- Many visitors mainly here for tourism came to visit iDrink giving a more international twist to the event
Melle Bar in Dizengoff was packed and it looks like next iDrink will have to take place in a bigger place with working wifi
iDrink07 will take place sometime in October. Reminder: we do not send invitation to iDrink. If you want to come just come, but register on iDrink website so you can receive the details of the venue
