Well, I thought the competition was for developers as in indie-developers and not startups! Here is what the description from contest page says -
"We've partnered with Union Square Ventures, who are investors in Twilio, to give one developer the opportunity to travel to New York City to meet with Fred Wilson, Albert Wenger, and Brad Burnham."
This doesn't seem to be a appropriate winner to me. Please note, I'm not demeaning Asthmapolis' value proposition. I'm just saying, probably they are better suited for TechCrunch Disrupt kind of competiion as a startup, and not developer contests!
- dmor 16y agoThe theme for the contest was "Building a Business on Twilio" and the description was posted here: http://contests.twilio.com/2010/09/build-your-business-with-twilio-and-win-a-meeting-with-union-square-ventures-ends-927.html http://contests.twilio.com/2010/09/build-your-business-with-... While we can only commit to covering the travel costs for one developer, the contest was open to everyone - including existing startups. "The partners at Union Square Ventures will serve as our judges for this round, and they will select one awesome Twilio-powered company to meet with them in New York City, all expenses paid. Three runners up will each receive $250 in Twilio credit to help get their businesses off the ground."
