Our Reading
The launch follows a familiar script.
Another startup competition, another chance to win funding and attention. The prize includes $100,000 in equity-free funding, because who doesn’t love “free” money? The real prize is the global visibility and connections with investors, because that’s what every startup really needs. And, of course, the chance to launch on the TechCrunch Disrupt stage, because launching on a stage is the ultimate startup goal. The application window closes, but the hype never does.
