After a weekend of hardcore coding, some great Texas food, and some unrealistic expectations, we had 8 presentations, and the top 3 teams won some cold, hard cash! The vote was done from an informal panel of judges in the room with decades of collective startup experience.

Congratulations to PickyPlates who won the 1st place prize of $1,000 2nd to OpenWishList who won $750 and 3rd to 1FTPclient who took home $250. Thank you to Alexander Muse and Ryan Roberts for sponsoring the prize!

Thank you to Gabriella Draney for the amazing summary of the presentations. Check her blog for full details!

What happened with the Woopra $5,000? The team behind the app did an amazing job and have formed a company called Black Eyed Apps and have earned not only the $5,000 prize, but their first client is Woopra as they will continue forward to finish up the app and start to take on other projects!

Check back for more updates and some awesome footage once it gets cut!

A huge thank you to our sponsors for making this to happen! Thank you Sun Startup Essentials, Woopra, BigInJapan, SpringStage, Microsoft, TechWildCatters, MIT Enterprise Forum, Wowrack, The Kauffman Foundation, and Twilio!

It’s only 10:05pm and things are still going strong… these teams are serious. I cant wait to see what happens tomorrow.
