Judges Scores from Feb. Startupalooza

Here are the scores from the last Startupalooza event.

HOW TO READ THE RESULTS:

1. Idea Value is the consensus valuation of the business concept. It shows how well Investors "get it."

2. This tells you how well you are getting your message across.

3. Execution. This tells you how Investors handicap your chances of getting to market and delivering.

NOTES:

If the idea value is much higher or lower than the execution then either you are viewed as a great idea person but not experienced enough or you are very experienced but looking for a good concept.

If your presentation is higher than the other scores then you are a great salesperson for the idea but either it is not a strong enough idea or you are not seen as the CEO.

If your execution is too low then you need a partner. If it is too high, someone might offer you a job.
