You know what’s exciting?
Seeing people you work with leave and go start a startup!
What’s even more exciting, when that person is then on the stage at TechCrunch Disrupt pitching to thousands of people in San Francisco!
Earlier this month, a batch of Hong Kong startups led by the ‘Cyberport Delegation to the US’ stormed San Francisco for TechCrunch Disrupt. Among them were Notey, GoGoVan, Shopline and Ambi.
Besides rubbing shoulders with Bay Area entrepreneurs and investors, one of our startups seized this opportunity to officially launch their product during ‘Startup Battlefield.’ As the first Hong Kong startup to enter this pitch competition, MailTime unveiled their app to Disrupt conference goers and to the ‘App Store.’ Download it for iOS here!
Founded in late 2013 by Heatherm Huang and Gary Lau (who also built instant voice messager TalkBox), MailTime raised a seed round of US $500,000 from a group of China and Silicon Valley investors in June and our former Girl Friday Charlie Sheng now heads up marketing efforts for them. Having grown the team to six, the SF-based startup is plugging away at an Android version and plan on disrupting email attachments in the very near future.
