my #SWAlex winners list!
There’s no denying that I was the official asshole of StartupWeekend Alexandria, and went around criticizing and passing judgement on participants left and right. I was just being honest and trying to hold the startups to the high standards that I think our work in the region should strive to match.
I have nothing against any single one of you, it’s admirable enough that you made it to the event and worked very hard on your idea, so I hope you take my feedback in good sport.
Without further ado, here’s my winners list across different categories:
