Ann Arbor Startup Weekend

I must admit that I do not understand large scale database computing technologies - but hot damn, we’ve got a team here working on them. Right now, they’re talking about things I do understand though, at least in the abstract: funding. They’re brainstorming some ways to raise money and continue to make money as they go forward. These guys are talking about big dollar numbers, but all of the teams here have to answer this same question. How do we get the money we need to make this all happen?
