My comment today on the latest blog entry by A VC @ http://www.avc.com/a_vc/2013/02/award-shows.html
When I'm in a business and I’m courting investors & clients alike all the time, out there if there's one event that has a better brand equity than my new start-up's wet-behind-the-ears name has...., I'd surely want to jump right in & improve my chances of getting that extra nano-sec of attention, exposure and the possible business that could come along - please note my usage of would, could - no guarantees here folks, like in any investment, there's only hope which is not always merely fond...
Surely, self-nomination requires some amount of self-assuredness if not cocksureness...& if the few eyeballs I got when I figured in the nominations turn to lot more when I win - hey, am not complaining - you shouldn't even!
