> When I attended the first time to present, I found a nearly empty room with five or six people and another entrepreneur presenting on stage. Next up, was me. Before I started, I just asked, “Who were the actual Red Herring judges?” No one raised their hands. Since it was only five others, I asked who they were with. They were all entrepreneurs waiting to present next. We then realized, there were NO judges and NO “esteemed panel.”
I expected the "conference" to be lackluster and crappy, but I didn't expect that they would literally not even bother setting anything up for the awards. Amazing.

That's what I found weird.

Why was the first person even on the stage talking? There had to be an MC.
