fatfoogoo wins runner up in Munich Venture Lounge’s Media and Technology competition

In spite of the global financial crisis, last Tuesday’s Munich Venture Lounges’ “Media & Technology”, with over 100 participants from start-ups and venture capitalists was extremely well attended.  The event was hosted by the corporate finance advisory firm CatCap, the VC firm Neuhaus Partners, and the PR network European Marketing Communications.

The competition was narrowed down to 9 startup companies, each with an opportunity to present their company to the jury.  From these 9 start-ups 3 top winners were chosen,  nFon, fatfoogoo, and Just Landed.  As a result of this win, fatfoogoo CFO Thomas Offner has been approached by a number of VC’s in attendance, as well as those interested in further investment in the gaming and virtual world communities.

“We’re both honored and proud to have been selected as finalists for this competition.  A runner up win in this very exclusive and high investor potential competition is a double win for fatfoogoo.” says CFO Thomas Offner.

fatfoogoo CEO Martin Herdina adds, “The win today is just more proof of fatfoogoo’s very positive momentum in this fast paced market.  It’s great to get this positive feedback from the gaming industry as well as the financial community.”
