Angel invest in them?
- il 16y agoI was going to write something snarky about the bubble here, but after thinking about it, a half baked product of an all night hackathon getting angel investment is par for the course. Definitely put the top ones on stage in front of investors, and, if you can, give every participant some kind of freebie(free pass to the conference?). The people who participate in hackathons are exactly who you want to be putting in front of investors as much as possible.
- jasonmcalacanis 16y agoYeah, a free pass wouldn't be a problem for some folks. we already gave 50 developers on HN free tickets, and Mahalo's 20 developers are coming. :-)
- keesj 16y agoWould be fun, although if I hacked a project together I wouldn't have much time to continue with it after the conference (I'm a founder already). Perhaps have people choose between investment or lunch with you or one of the judges.
