Demo Day finally arrived. The six weeks of work finally paid off. We were all so proud of all 9 teams. They not only created viable business plans and functional prototypes, but they were passionate, dedicated, and supportive of each other. Although the teams were competing for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, all the students were so proud of one another, regardless of the outcome. Congratulations to MIT GSL Peru 2014 winners:

  • Pichanga (semi-finalist): automatic semi-finalist position in Wayra's selection process, which is Telefonica-Peru's startup accelerator program
  • súbeteYA (semi-finalist): automatic semi-finalist position in Wayra's selection process, which is Telefonica-Peru's startup accelerator program

Also a huge, huge congratulations to all 9 teams for making it all the way to Demo Day with such dedication and for blowing our minds away!
