Well-funded entrepreneurs face off with venture capitalists and media at latest Demo event


Twice a year, well-funded entrepreneurs face off with venture capitalists and the press at Demo events. DemoFall 2009 took place last month in San Diego, where 70 companies pitched their new products or strategies.

Emo Labs showed off its edge-driven transparent speaker panels in one of the best demos of the show so far. Not much to look at, but they sound great.
