The Crème de la Crème for Mini Seedcamp Paris – Our Top Teams

We are very happy to announce some of our top teams that will be attending Mini Seedcamp Paris on 24 February 2009 hosted by MSFT|idEES.

We had a breadth of applications from different regions and we will continue to encourage more cross-regional participation. There was a lot of focus on business models and sectors where “how you’ll make money” was straightforward and prominent. There were several Ideas in shopping, gaming, solutions for SMEs, and even some for social bookmarking. Once again there are only 20 spots, so we pored over the applications carefully and selected the ones where we see a lot of market potential and where we could get a good understanding of a team’s background.

For future applicants, we would strongly recommend that you spend a good amount of time filling out the application comprehensively so that you can communicate with us as clearly as possible the critical strengths of your team and idea.

Here are some of the teams de jour chosen so far:

3rd Eye Solutions Ltd – iDesktop.TV ADN: Mobile – iFrame Art and You Brainient Calcul Plus EtreProprio.com GameTube jiwa KPIWeb Kwaga Musicovery MxM MyVocal PrestaShop SimplySim rtgi – linkfluence SimplySim Weem Wozaik Yoolinkpro
