Ask HN: which angel programs are worthwhile besides YC and Techstars NYC?
- ffumarola 16y agoWhat about NYC seedstart, alphalabs, or betaspring? The latter two are part of the tech stars network, so I am curious what people think.
- seliopou 16y agoMy team was in last year's Betaspring class. We had a blast, worked our asses off, and our company's doing well post-accelerator, thanks in no small part to the Betaspring partners, the mentors, and the other teams that went through the program with us. I recommend it highly. Also, Providence doesn't suck like other cities. Just sayin'.
- bradgillespie 16y agoTechStars Seattle, TechStars Boston, TechStars Boulder ;) Seedcamp is fantastic as well
- jasonlbaptiste 16y agoIf you're interested in applying to TechStars NYC email me: j@onswipe.com . Happy to answer questions.
- riskish 16y agoangelpad I hear is great.
- aaronmarks 16y agoDreamIt Ventures started in Philly and is launching in NYC this Summer. They take applicants for both startups as well as hackers interested in being matched up with a startup (Somewhat like being a Techstars "Hackstar")
- Jarred 16y agoHow's Venture.io? I almost applied to them but decided that Y-Combinator would be better.
- djsamson 16y agoDreamIt Ventures already closed its NYC applications. I saw that Dreamit takes applications from hackers and business entrepreneurs and team them up. I'm not confident enough in my programming yet but I feel like I'm qualified for the business end, are there other programs like this where they create teams?
- kerryrupp 15y agoWhile DreamIt's summer NYC program is now closed (we've chosen our 15 companies), we will be opening up applications for our fall Philly program on May 9th and will be accepting applications for companies, hackers and strategists for that session as well. Full schedule for the Philadelphia program is here: http://www.dreamitventures.com/about/Schedules.php http://www.dreamitventures.com/about/Schedules.php
- neworbit 16y agoI hear good things about Techstars Boulder and not much enthusiasm for their other franchises
- tmarkiewicz 16y agoI'm a founder of a TechStars Boulder company from last summer and would be happy to answer any questions. In a nutshell, it was a great program and I'd do it again without hesitation.
