Three things surprise me:

Spotify rocks, but seriously… that many awards?

The nominees in ‘Best Design’ aren’t designed all that well. IRL Connect? What?

Poken? Come on. Have you even tried the service? Fon would have been a better winner.

[...] to Spotify who tonight swept away 4 (yes 4) awards at the first TechCrunch Europe Awards (the Europas). The awards were created to recognise and honour the best tech companies and startups [...]

Strange that Spotify only received 4 awards. They are by far the best company in Europe right now. They will change the complete music business.

[...] At last night’s TechCrunch Europa Awards, I took stock of the devices that the coolest developers were supporting. Look at Marko Balabanovic as an example of the kind of geeks I saw. He’s a London-based developer who showed me one of the coolest iPhone apps I’ve ever seen. You aim your iPhone around the street and it tells you about places near you using the iPhone’s compass. It will ship “soon” and his app already ships on the Google Android phones. No, it does not support Europe’s own phones. [...]

Best Design was a weak category tbh. In my mind design is either great UI or great creativity.

Songkick is ‘OK’ but other than that it is THE category where Europe gets dicked on by US companies.

I love Spotify, but Best Design Shortlist ? Really ? Bit of a joke but I guess it’s there partly because the original voting was poorly done (no links, just list of companies) and people voted them in because they were the hot company they’d heard of.

Come on!!! This shows how clueless you guys are in the Israeli Start Up scene. Giving Yossi Vardi the Best Personality award is the most miserable choice you could have made.
Yossi Vardi is smart and has a great sense of humor which helped him to become a good presenter. Yossi is the world’s best in creating for himself a great brand while having very little behind it. Check his investments and see his success rate – not as high as many other investors and angels that are by far more modest than he is.
Yossi is a bully that has managed to create a huge animosity against him in the Israeli startup scene. He is feared as you can never know when and why he becomes your vicious and vindictive enemy. People that know him stay away from him as far as they can. He is on non-speaking terms with many founders, CEOs of companies he has invested in, VC partners and other executives that innocently said something or were associated with someone that he doesn’t like.
He is extremely greedy. Just check with the founders of the companies he’s invested in. He has managed to position himself as the good old uncle that is looking for the next team of young kids with a great idea. He then invests in the company for an outrageous share. He does very little for his companies. He is known to chase the last few dollars that are left in the companies that he is invested in and unfortunately are shutting down. Those dollars are planned as severance pay for the few employees that hanged in with the company until the bitter end. Yossi would call company dozens of times in the last days trying to scrape these few dollars and get them back.
He positions himself as a man of integrity and honesty. Unfortunately too many stories prove the exact opposite.
Yossi is constantly looking for respect and admiration. He arranges all sorts of conventions and conferences whose sole purpose is to enhance his own brand. Every year he takes a bunch of young Israeli entrepreneurs or CEOs of very small startups to a tour in the Silicon Valley to “meet industry leaders”. Each participant gets to talk about his or her startup for two minutes. The industry leaders get to hear 20 such speeches within less than an hour. These poor young CEOs pay almost $5000 for the voyage that cynically gives value only to Yossi’s brand.
The grotesque thing is that he is now more associated with ICQ than the founders themselves. It was their idea that gave him the fame and glory but he’s managed to become known as “the ICQ founder”. His investment track record is pretty bad and yet he is known as the “Internet Guru”. Did I say that he was the best in creating for himself a strong brand with very little behind it?
What a miserable choice….

[...] Both on TechCrunch.com, and by our own efforts on TechCrunch Europe, we try to do two things: 1) cover the tech market journalistically 2) engage with the market as player and commentator, trying to push things forward. We do the latter most often by highlighting new startups, companies and individuals we think the wider market should hear about. But the majority of the time we actually take a pretty upbeat view of things, especially at TechCrunch Europe. Why? Because the market for tech startups remains at an early period here. Yes we could argue long and hard about what stage it’s at, but generally speaking the majority of the stuff we come across still in development. That will probably be the case for a while, but it doesn’t mean we can’t cover it. When I first started writing about Favorit three years ago, Nick Halstead was just another crazy geek with this mad idea to build a new platform for blog comments. Guess what? It didn’t work, but we covered him and eventually that platform became the basis for Tweetmeme, a hugely successful Twitter aggregator and platform. When we started writing about Huddle in 2007, Andy McLoughlin and Alastair Mitchell had a seemingly insane idea to take on the mighty BaseCamp. In 2008 they are the only collaboration partner for LinkedIn and a Europas winner. [...]
