Hello friends!
Blitz Bazaar is back in rainy San Francisco from the WeMedia conference in Miami. If you remember a previous blog post, we were one of four business finalists in the PitchIt! Competition, competing for $25,000 to further fund our company. Well, we did not win. But that doesn’t mean we lost! Here are all the great things that came out of this week:
1. We practiced an 8 minute presentation about 80 million times. Now, we can talk about Blitz Bazaar in a much clearer way. Here’s a short version from Blitz Bazaar founder Lloyd Nimetz:
2. We realized the TRUE innovation of Blitz Bazaar: we network not only individuals, but organizations. It has never been done before (successfully) and effectively connecting organizations can lead to more effective collaboration and SYNERGY. Lloyd will elaborate on this exciting epiphany soon.
3. We saw amazing speakers like the CEO of PBS, Paula Kerger.
4. Sweet South Florida nature: Manatees, Mangroves & Mangoes.
And with that, we will stubbornly continue to believe that the opposite of a winner is NOT a loser.
Being a finalist in a competition like WeMedia is a great achievement in itself. Congratulations!
We pitched grroup (the groups of groups) last year in the same competition. Looking forward to hearing more!
