Last night our CEO, Ray accompanied by our CTO, Gavin did a 10 minutes presentation for the SDVG judging panel together with the 10 other semi-finalists. Earlier today we got the great news that we have made the finals of the SDVG's annual PitchFest. Three companies were chosen to present at the final round to be held on December 3rd in La Jolla, San Diego.

We were recently chosen as one of 10 semi-finalists in the San Diego Venture Group's ninth annual Pitchfest. The competition was open to any firm based in Southern California that has raised less than $2.5 million in institutional venture capital. We were required to submit our business plan and a powerpoint presentation which was reviewed by a screening committee of local business advisers and venture capitalists whose selections narrowed the field to the 10 semifinalists and we were very excited to see our name BidMyAtoZ on the list of 10.
