Some people come with ideas, others with proof of concept from past projects they want to commercialise. We're open to any: last year's SynbioAxlr8r none of the teams had a prototype.
For Cork, I'm eager to get applicants early so we can plan and design prototype #1 early and have it when teams arrive in Cork, so as to dive right into the hackage. Teams get the first 5k upon acceptance, so this is entirely feasible. We'll be working with teams to keep design on-track and get it sanity-checked, too. And, teams that want to begin prototyping *before* the programme are also welcome to do so, eager beavers that they are. :)

Awesome, some of these look pretty interesting. Congrats if anyone is out there listening, no idea if anyone is from the list.Out of curiosity, and maybe this can help all future applicants...how advanced are the prototypes and data people tend to show during the pitch? Maybe you can't say, but were any of these companies "strictly idea" phase?Would any teams be willing to share their pitch videos? I know Ycombinator leaves up some successful previous applicant videos, but I can also understand why a company wouldn't want to leave theirs up.
