anon1776··on DreamIT Ventures Opens Up Applications For Summer 09 Funding Cycle
I meant with that site I linked to. The front page looks pretty slick, but the other pages look like they were made in 1996.

Their valuations are terrible and the program's entire purpose is to try to get lucky and latch onto the next YouTube coming out of UIUC.

It's like YC except without any of the benefits and with terrible terms. There is no value added.

Run, don't walk from IllinoisVENTURES. Read up on them at TheFunded.

They're probably even worse than these Dreamit guys, but they are definitely of the same ilk.
