Union Sq. Ventures
The writing was on the wall.
Jack Dorsey: Taking the subway to Union Sq. The NYC one. (July 23rd)
(actually I missed that one, but Twitters from Jack regarding the White Stripes were a dead give away!)
Bit late, but congrats to both Twitter and WeSabe on closing funding with Union Sq. Ventures.
Like Tony said, “All my friends go with Union Sq.”. I’ve been fan (a fan of a VC!?!?) since shortly before their del.icio.us investment, and they continue to fund my favorite start ups.
We walked by their office today, but too busy to stop in and say, “Hi”.
Plazes, European (PHP) Startup, raised EUR 2.7 Mio Venture Capital
Plazes, European startup (founded by Stefan Kellner), raised EUR 2.7 Mio. from Doughty Hanson Technology Ventures, as reported by Techcrunch. Good to see that European startups become more and more interesting for VCs, and good to see that it's a PHP-based "Web2.0" community. :-) Congratulations to Stefan for this deal.
How did we know that it's based on PHP? Well, that was very easy, just simulating a HTTP request to get the HTTP response headers:
