Today, I attended the "Start Up and Grow" event at the Hasso-Plattner-Institut at the University of Potsdam. The event was the kick-off for the Hasso-Plattner-Ventures venture fund, a VC founded (and funded primarily) by Hasso Plattner. Watch the stream of fotos from my cell phone as we made it through the day.
