Everyone wants their “idea” or their business to be a success. But what if bringing a startup to life means working yourself to death?
And even after your idea starts to get noticed, what then? At the edge of success, nothing is more possible than failure.
Ctrl+Alt+Compete takes a revealing look at the startup and emerging business scene through the eyes of 5 founders and their teams and tells a story of the passion, fortitude and insanity that accompany the birth of any great idea. The film rides shotgun with these visionaries as they face the challenges and obstacles of making their vision a reality. Along the way, insights and analysis of seasoned industry watchers and tech sector pioneers provide the backdrop for the entrepreneurs’ struggles.
The film was commissioned by Microsoft and made its world premiere at the Napa Valley Film Festival in the fall of 2011.
