Here's another take on it (we also exhibited in Startup Alley)... Yes, there was a lot of drama, but I think that's what focused MORE attention on this Disrupt then others. Normally the only press really covering Disrupt is TechCrunch itself (as the other tech publications see it as competition). This time, because of the drama, I suspect a LOT more people were checking TechCrunch.com and TechCrunch did feature quite a few Startup Alley companies during this time. Yes, someone is going to be a loser, and it sounds like your startup missed out on press and leads, but these are the risks we take as entrepreneurs.
