In an
earlier post, I mentioned that social media belongs to our age group, that we are the ones who know it best, so we should be the ones to utilize and manipulate it. Well, it seems as though my opinions have turned into reality.
invite media, an online video advertising startup company, came out of the brilliant minds of four University of Pennsylvania students. Seniors Zachary Weinberg, Nathaniel Turner, Scott Becker, and Michael Provenzano started with an application for Facebook, but have now changed their game plan to a full-on online display optimization company with a social network component. The last few months have seen them move from a small studio apartment in North Philadelphia to an office building at the heart of the city. A management team, board of directors, statistics team and engineering team combine to create the brain-power needed to pull off such an impressive project. With the help of angel investors, venture capitalists, and a 2007 Wharton Business School Venture Award, the guys have been working hard to get the company off and running.
Such determined and skillful college guys don’t come around too often, so check back for updates on their progress – I expect great things to come out of that small studio apartment.
