Earlier this month, the 10 startups in our Fall 2012 Accelerator class got the chance to pitch to a room full of investors, mentors and technology enthusiasts. Over three hundred people joined us on the Redmond campus to see the final pitches in person.

For venture capitalists and angel investors, Demo Day was the chance to meet, and possibly fund, ten new startups that are looking to change the world. For the companies that were a part of this inaugural Accelerator class, this was their official coming out party—an opportunity to capture the attention of investors, reach customers, celebrate how far they’ve come in three short months - and the great businesses they’ve built on Windows Azure.
You can experience Demo Day yourself by watching a video of the presentations.
