| Capital Factory: Demo Day 2009 |
| Wednesday, September 09, 2009 |
Webcast for Capital Factory Showcases Austin Entrepreneurs to the WorldCapital Factory hosts its inaugural Demo Day showcasing five portfolio start-ups Wednesday, September 9 at the AT&T Conference Center on the University of Texas at Austin campus. Following a ten-week technology incubator program that took place this summer Demo Day offers start-ups the opportunity to launch their business concept to the world, attending investors, and entrepreneurs. Sparksight implemented a live webcast utilizing a two-camera shoot enabling those who couldn’t be at Demo Day in person to take part in the event. With a quarter of Demo Day’s audience watching from their very own computers world-wide, the webcast added value to the event and its participants. The webcast included the presentations of five companies and a Venture Capital panel, “What’s it Take Today to Build a Super Startup?” Sparksight also performed post-production for redistribution of event footage on the Internet.
