Ask HN: Most successful startups launched during tech conferences?

1 pointsby boju117 anni fa2 comments

Demo, Techcrunch50, Web 2.0 ... you name it, tech conferences are (said to be) a great way for startups to go to the next level, network, find investors etc.

What are the most successful statups launch in this kind of conferences over the last 3 years :

- in term of profitability today ? - in term of market share or other important metric of success ?

I think it's important to look back at those and try to understand what key aspects they share in common.

I think all you need to do is go back to look at the conferences in the past and see who launched. Here's TC50 from 2007 http://www.techcrunch50.com/2007/ You'll recognize a few names who are doing very well now, However compare that to last year http://www.techcrunch50.com/2008/ and I don't recognize a single company their as reaching a critical mass in the last year.
