The big winner last night at New Media BC's Fusion Forum was Vancouver's Ecobuddies. While event organizers captured all twenty pitches yesterday on video, it may take a few days for them to be edited and approved by the pitchers for release.
In the meantime, Techvibes has some recent elevator pitch footage from two of the three acknowledged as Best in Show.
First Runner Up AppSocial came out of stealth mode for the first time and Founder Ian Bell outlined his plans for an iPhone dating app that will call Tingle.com home. Bell's pitch was full of double entendres that kicked off with him explaining his Cost-Per-Action revenue model for a dating site.
Last night's awards presenter VC Jeff Clavier praised Second Runner Up Angel Pui of My Wedding Match for her presentation skills. Not a surprise as they were pretty polished when Techvibes Victoria Revay caught up with her at the last Launch Party Vancovuer.
