Saturday brought the 2013 Entelect R100K Challenge to a close on the main stage at rAge expo. A fully loaded audience attended the finals which went off superbly under the humorous supervision of Entelect R100K Guru, Evan Knowles. Winner, Pierre Pretorius managed to beat defending 2012 champion, Jaco Cronje in a nail-biting final match.
This years “play-offs” to determine the top 8 contestants were held at the Fire & Ice hotel in Melrose Arch. The video highlights the build-up with some commentary by contestants and Entelect.
This year’s finalists were testament to the vibrant software development community in South Africa, each competing with a sense of camaraderie and gratitude all the way through to the bloody, teary end.
