I am an attendee from Startup Insiders Islamabad session. It was really nice to be there. I am also planning to launch a startup. And I came up with an idea: why not let people showcase/launch their new startup at Startup Insiders! I have posted this in Osama’s and Jehan Ara’s blog too. I hope you people will consider it.

I was thinking may be in the last hour of Startup Insiders session, you can provide an opportunity for new startups to showcase their work? Like giving 10-15 minutes to each startup to describe their work. By “new startups” I mean those who are planning to launch a startup and have their product ready and want to showcase it to other peers and industry leaders to get advise and comments (and also possible investment.)

I have seen such events happening in other countries like the infamous TechCrunch40 event:

The format is simple: Forty of the hottest new startups from around the world will announce and demo their products over a two day period at TechCrunch40. And they don’t pay a cent to do this. They will be selected to participate based on merit alone. (more)
