I don't like the simultaneous Q&A. I wanted to watch all the teams. It's an 8 ring circus. Of course, I don't like going to conferences that offer multiple tracks, either.
@DanielKehoe I think nReduce just needs to figure out how investors can switch quickly between startup windows and get into the right moment of conversation. If there are 8 startups in a bundle, does investor really want to talk/listen to all of them? An ability to skip startups that are not relevant because of their market niche or their stage is actually a great advantage and will help to focus on those that might be more relevant. I think parallel mode is more productive and active. In linear mode some folks may get bored. nReduce needs to play with timing and notification features that will make it rock. E.g. investor submits questions to 3 startups out of 8 and gets notified when startup reached the question in a queue - this will save time and efforts and make the process more interactive
