One big commercial with this content embedded in it:
"One quick factual point – of course mentors are able to attend the judging sessions, several did this year and have done every year. I think what happened yesterday was a pretty innocent misunderstanding – you came into the room mid-pitch and as you’d not been a mentor during the week, I guess that’s why Reshma asked very politely for you to not join the session."
which Philip Wilkinson then disputes:
"Reshma outright told me that I had to leave the judging session as I had not put money into seedcamp, as had all the others sitting in that room. She asked me to leave before the next pitch began too. Mentors were not allowed in full stop."
What seems somewhat unclear is whether Wilkinson was a mentor or not.
