What a week! September 9
Tablefinder was selected as one of the 6 "winners" of SeedCamp 2007! However, all of the 20 teams in London last week are winners in our opinion. The lineup of mentors were just amazing and everyone attending got something good out of the week.
We finally managed to nail a description of what we do, to be able to explain to anybody what we want to achieve with our vision.
When we first described our business a lot of people thought that we were trying to compete with reservation giants like OpenTable and Livebookings, when we are really trying to help them make more money. The online reservation market is very fragmented at the moment, where you have to go to different sites to book different restaurants. Tablefinders aim is to bring all of those fragments together in an open and rewarding community. By doing that we are able to give access to 100% of online bookable restaurants, everywhere in the world. This has been our vision from the start, to make all the online bookable restaurants bookable through Tablefinder, and with the help of SeedCamp, we are able to make our vision come true.
SeedCamp does not only help us come closer to our vision, but also is a big initiative in really changing the European entrepreneurial playground. A lot of people are afraid to fail, and many great ideas get lost in the process. We all need to change our views on what it means to have an idea and give it a shot. We all need to support each other and help people with great ideas change the world. So if your friends come with an idea, don't put it off as a joke, help them make their vision come true.
