Thanks nqureshi for making these notes. Unfortunately, I couldn't travel to this Startup School and am really missing it (missed live stream, too, because I'm with my kids). I'm most curious to know if attendees enjoyed the talks and the overall event. I'd like to start looking forward to the 2015 version if there should be one :)

Thanks jl! Everyone I spoke to loved the event, particularly because:

1. The talks were awesome 2. It was ridiculously well-organised (and the food was superb) 3. There was a really good crowd there

I look forward to more YC events in London!

It was absolutely wonderful for me, but mostly for meeting all these wonderful people. I came to London early and got together with some other attendees the day before.

I can't say it was productive, but atleast we got to simulate a Silicon Valley -type of social environment for a day.

It was a great day and a great event, really inspiring!

Definitely worth going next year if it comes to Europe again.

jl, I enjoyed the last talk you gave including the gem:

  Quietly determined people tend to win because the
  scenesters usually can't build anything.
