Posted by Sebastian Wallroth in Events, Web Services Contest, October 28th, 2008

More than 200 entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, programmers, bloggers, and Web 2.0 geeks met at the zanox GAP campus and made the zanox Web Services Contest Finale Night of Innovations 2008 a huge event on Friday, October 24th, 2008. The zanox Monetization 2.0 team of Mario Brockmann, Hoon Cho, Francesco Votta, and Sebastian Wallroth along with the zanox Web Services Team of Thomas Nicolai, Daniel Neubauer, Mira Gressard, Frank Ittermann, and Harro Harten giving a big thank to the zanox Marketing team of Uwe Bormann, Alexandra Lilienthal, and David Fauck for organising this great final event of the Berlin Web Week 2008.

Thanks to enough wine, soft drinks, and cocktails the faux pas with the beer – off 6 minutes after opening the bar – was not that big topic of conversation as the twitter wall suggests than Web 2.0 business and strategy and the cute soccer playing robots presented by the innovative team FUmanoids of the Free University Berlin.

Thanks to all guests for coming, we hope to see you again soon.
