Emerginvest Blog

Hello All,

I just wanted to write a quick follow up to the last post and reiterate how excited we are to have officially launched our website. It was an honor to meet so many startup gurus, and the amount of interest we have received has been incredible.

A few of the notable mentions of the press we have received has been:

•Henry Blodget (CEO, co-founder, and editor in Chief of Silicon Alley Insider) took the time to review our company in Silicon Alley Insider, and had very good things to say about us:

“excellent web-based research/information tool and very much needed.”

•An Article from Xconomy mentioning both Emerginvest and the Updown, suggesting: “Is Boston a New Hub for Finance Investing Sites?”

•A review from Don Dodge (who was also on our panel) – Head of Microsoft’s Emerging Enterprise Division, and veteran of AltaVista, Forte Software, Napster, Bowstreet, and Groove Networks.

All of this will be posted under the newly modified “Buzz” section – continually updating the coverage we are getting, as well as all the usual emerging markets and international market coverage we can find. It has truly been the most exciting week for our company and we look forward to posting more progress in the months to come.

Best,
Jonathan
