Spring 12 Launch Week was a Blast!
The sixteen teams of the Spring 2012 session delivered the goods on Launch Day last week, to a capacity audience of 250 at the Betaspring offices in Providence. The startups had lots to talk about, with major progress on investment rounds, strategic partnerships and customer traction.
If you missed the event or the live stream, we''ll have the videos posted later this week. For more on the Spring teams, check out our Launch Day blog or the Portfolio page.
We were pleased to have a dozen press outlets cover Launch Day, and spotlight some of the standout companies. Here is a roundup:
- Boston.Com: The Innovation Economy Awards
- Mashable: Dr. Roboto? Interactive Teddy Bear Helps Kids Manage Diabetes
- Boston Globe: Accelerator Programs Can Help Startups Take Off Faster
- Providence Journal: TWOBOLT Pressing Forward
Launch Day roundups also at Tech Cocktail, Mass HighTech, BostInno, Providence Journal, Providence Business News, Providence Phoenix, and Associated Press.
Sixteen new alumni companies minted! Thanks again to our mentors and sponsors for their support, and get ready for Fall 2012, starting late August.
