Boston's Getting to Know DreamIt Ventures

Xconomy, a national business and technology publication, featured stories on SCVNGR and DreamIt Ventures over the last week.

In the first article, Wade Roush's interview focused on SCVNGR and Seth Priebatsch. Discussing future plans and their summer at DreamIt Ventures, Seth offered "coordinating mobile games is just one of many potential uses for the SmartRoute algorithms... right now we’re pretty heavily focused on this gaming market because we think there’s a lot of potential there, and the market seems to want something that will make a location-based game easy and fun."

The second article, a follow on to the first, featured Wade's interview with Michael Levinson. Familiar with fellow startup seed organizations (like YCombinator and TechStars), Wade explored what makes us different. Perhaps Seth said it best, DreamIt "offered more support—monetary, administrative, and advisory—than [Seth] would have gotten from the other incubators he considered applying to. "
