Codetoki

Codetoki wins 1st Place in the Ideas Challenge of AppBridge.

Last June 11, 2012, we had our pilot event held in CeBuinIT Training Room. Our participants were the B.S Computer Science students from the University of the Philippines Cebu. We had around 50+ participants during the event.  

Participants

The topics discussed during the event were about how CeBuinIT can help you start your own business venture and some testimonials from the different locators.  What geeky stuffs they use for their start-up ( programming languages, OS, software development tools).

Also, we're very happy and thankful to our guest speakers who shared some great insights about technopreneurship. Our speakers were Jethro Estimo of Pindoco, Paul Villacorta of CebuDirectories, Jerome Locson of Ariba Tech Solutions (showed off his cool Android apps :] ) and Jeffrey Montecillos of CeBuinIT.

Last May 11, 2012, Bootyard Team joined Startup Weekend in Cebu. Out of 50+ ideas presented on Friday, happily, our Codetoki idea made it to the top 20 ideas. 

Our idea about Codetoki was a place where Students and Hackers can communicate like ask questions or post answers. But, with the great ideas and insights coming from the mentors during Startup Weekend, the Codetoki idea was improved. We are really thankful to all the mentors.    

We're very happy we won 3rd place and an opportunity to take part of the AppBridge contest. Also, the chance to meet the VCs from Silicon Valley like Dado Banatao, Winston Damarillo and others. The experience was really priceless. We're very happy to be part of the first Startup Weekend Cebu.
