Here’s the announcement of the 3rd Mobile Monday Barcelona season. For this event on October 13 at the Auditorium of Barcelona Activa, we’re exploring the impact of the financial crisis and the implications for startups in mobile technology with the topic: Mobile Startups & VC’s: Opportunities in Times of Crisis.

We invited some of the most active and knowledgeable VC’s in mobile in Spain with presentations from Nauta Capital, Debaeque and Caixa Capital Risc.

As part of our new initiatives for this season, we invited two local startups, theChanner and Beabloo, and a startup from the Netherlands, Liveskope who will be presenting their projects.

Hi Rudy,

wow what a tremendous difference between the ideas and the panelists at Momo in Madrid and the one in BCN.
Are you planning to give up the event in BCN?

No not at all, why would we? We’re alternating one month in Barcelona, then one in Madrid from now on to preserve the quality of the content and keep our lives a bit more under control

FYI all companies that presented in Madrid last month presented already in Barcelona before.

For this event, we have the 3 major VCs in mobile in Spain and we have 3 totally new startups… I don’t really see a lot of difference as what we were doing before… Can you be more specific?

Hope to see you Monday!

I put a comment on yesterday but the moderator did not post the message. I can only assume that my candid comment was not appreciated. My question is ” Do these VCs actually know any better than the average person which sectors to invest into?” One of the larger presenters, Nauta Capital, is currently on their second fund and they have zero exits? Not sure about the other VCs but it appears to be similar. This could explain the difference in ideas…..nobody really knows.
