DreamIt Ventures announces 15 companies in its Fall 2011 class

DreamIt Ventures, Philadelphia’s nationally recognized early-stage technology incubator, has announced the 15 companies that will make up its Fall 2011 class. Seven have roots in the Philadelphia area.
Based in the University City Science Center, the incubator takes six percent stake in each company in exchange for three months of rapid development, mentoring and collaboration. Past DreamIt companies include SeatGeek, SCVNGR and Notehall.
Different from other years, this DreamIt class is the first in Philadelphia to begin in the Fall as the incubator opened up shop in the 67th Ward in the Summer. Additionally, DreamIt has partnered with Ben Franklin Technology Partners and Comcast Ventures to offer additional funding and the introduction of the Minority Entrepreneur Accelerator Program, respectively.
Previously Technically Philly had unearthed four of the fifteen including CloudMine, which we profiled last month.
