Funding for the 2 winning teams - Mudranik and UniApply were not the only takeaways for the contesting teams. Interaction opportunities with numerous eminent entrepreneurs (some of whom have evinced keen interest in turning these ideas into real) was mentioned as a singular USP of i2I’08 by all candidates.
