WebInno 33 Companies Revealed: MediaMob, GatherEducation & Lifeables Have the Main Dish Spotlight

WebInno, a regular, informal gathering around mobile and internet tech, just announced the companies that would be demoing during the group’s 33rd event on March 5, at the Royal Sonesta in Cambridge. WebInno was started by David Beisel, a partner at NextView Ventures, a local micro-VC firm that just closed its first fund.

The event is structured around a series of “Main Dish” demos from companies, picked through an application process beforehand. There are also “Side Dish” companies set up on the periphery to talk with interested attendees.

Here are the Main Dish pitch companies for WebInno 33:

  • MediaMob - Matt Snyder – Mobile marketing solutions for brands, bands, and publishers.
  • GatherEducation - Pano Anthos, Chris Mortonson, & Shonak Patel - Take a class online. Collaborate on projects. Share your success with everyone.
  • Lifeables - Jeremy Daly, Karen Macumber & Greg Czarnowski - A collaborative social media platform for family content curation.

And here are the Side Dish demo companies:

  • Abroad101 - Adam Miller, Mike Stone, Jamie Davidson, & Jenna Lashley - Software-as-a-service tools to institutions of higher education that want to collect study abroad program evaluations.
  • Zoora - Aubrie Pagano & Chirag Nirmal - Online boutique offering personalizable and custom-tailored women’s clothing from independent designers.
  • Mosaic Storage Systems - Gerard Murphy & Andy Young - Solution for serious photographers to manage, access, sync, and safely store their images both online and locally.
  • OnTheBar - Ian Stanczyk - Consider this app a real-time window into your local cocktail scene.
  • Cangrade - Michael Burtov, Gershon Goren & Steve Lehr - Pre-employment evaluation tool s for Recruiters, Employers and Job Candidates.

In addition to that, the event will feature remarks from Steve Papa, Founder and Chairman of Endeca, which was sold to Oracle recently for a rumored $1B+.

Finally, to cap it all off, the evening will include the announcement of the AngelHack2 Grand Prize winners! (Everything you need to know about the AngelHack2 hackathon is here.)

All in all, it looks to be a great evening for the web/mobile startup community. We hope to see you there.
