BL!XT showtime @ Slush 2018

Slush is the world’s leading tech event with 20,000 visitors. We asked ourselves: how to we get to the main stage to pitch BL!XT? It started with an application to Slush100 and of 3,000 startups we were among the 100 to get to pre-qualifications round the day before Slush. Hurray! Another Hurray! when we passed qualifications and were among the 15 to pitch in the semi finals! If you have been to Slush you have seen the pink stage. Huge scene at the center of the Slush venue, rock music and groovy atmosphere, just perfect for BL!XT! Unfortunately we didn’t made it to the top 3 finalists this time, but for us it was mission accomplished and so much fun!

One takeaway from Slush this year it the over used buzz words, in particular block chain and AI. I am always so surprised about startups saying ‘we are an AI company’, or ‘a block chain company’. I think the relevant questions is ‘what are the problems you solve?’.
