In the past 15 years, every year hundreds of IT companies around the world want to show off their products in a show call DEMO. But each time only 60 to 70 companies are selected, and in fact many big names you know now attended the DEMO before. These companies will show their coolest hardware / software products to a group of 700 investors, venture capitalists, journalists and industry leaders, to attract the group to invest in them.
After you’re selected to attend the grand event, the next challenge is to demo your product … in 6 minutes to the 700 experts – and yes, it is the famous “6 Minutes On Stage”.
What will you do on stage, and present to the 700 audiences in just 6 minutes ? Will you tell them how hard you work ? Or how you re-mortgage your house to finance the project ? Or how you left your another half just to finish the project ? No … of course.
In that 6 minutes, you will only show the best parts of your product. After all the hard work, what matter most is the RESULT – your product.

The other day I read my first newsletter I wrote 5 and a half year ago, and I found the following quote still applies …
“There is some place where your specialties can shine. Somewhere that difference can be expressed. It’s up to you to find it, and you can.”
