And so end the final day of LeWeb Paris 2012. It was quite a ride, and the third day was filled with just as many inspirational talks as the first two.

What on earth does kite-surfing have to do with startup culture? The MaiTai events mash together kite-surfers, investors and entrepreneurs in an adventure sports/entrepreneurship party.
Susi Mai's parents were wind-surfing hippies. Done her own thing with competitive kite-urging. Bill Tai is more tradition - an angel investor and board member. MaiTai is a "life changing bonding experience" where you put a load of high-energy people in one place, you get a super-networking event. Susi brings the kite-surfing, and makes sure everyone gets on the water - and hang out with top athletes. Delete the scoop?

Since a lot of you probably couldn’t make it to Paris for this event, we’ve highlighted some of the items that were showcased. It’s an expensive group of stocking stuffers, to be sure, many of which are shipping now or will be soon. Delete the scoop?
