Recently Quotidian Ventures announced the sponsorship of ten tickets for the startup weekend NYC (http://bit.ly/RyuNSj). And guess what? We both apply and got selected, though we still need some money to make it from Colombia to NYC.

It's not clear to me why you're different from any other wannabe entrepreneur trying to go to SW. You should probably describe yourselves more fully.

Good luck.

Thanks for your comment ;)

We just won two sponsored tickets from quotidianventures, so this could be considered as "special".

Also we founded CoffeeGrid (http://coffeegrid.org, http://coffeegrid.org/dev/med/) The entrepreneurship and technology community from Medellin/Colombia and our intents going to NYC are to learn and share with the local community. So you are kind of sponsoring the whole Medellin community with this ;)
