A case of white male privilege at TechCrunch Startup Battlefield Africa?
- Geekette 9y agoThis needs to be retitled: The story is mainly about irregularities/flawed voting in a pitch competition. "Now, curiously, LORI Systems were not part of the initial 15 startups announced to as finalists for the event nor did their name appear on the day's printed agenda and programme." If this is the case, then legitimate finalists and concerned attendees should complain directly to TechCrunch HQ staff (whose info is probably listed on their site) via email and Twitter. At a minimum, this and other points raised show there was a huge lack of transparency, which shouldn't be swept under the rug.
