* Dogpatch Labs was created by Polaris Venture Partners to connect entrepreneurs and help founders conceive and launch startups. They offer desk space, bandwidth, coffee and lunch to aspiring entrepreneurs. It is a wide-open, fun space that we share with a local startup, Social Media. It is sorta like a frat house for geeks. In addition to a workspace, we also use the lab frequently as a meeting place — for dinner events, brown bag lunch talks, workshops, conferences, symposia and good ole’ pizza and beer nights.

* "Free office space, Internet connectivity, camaraderie, and the eyes and ears of Polaris folks**."

• **Understood that Polaris gets first opportunity for investing if a venture gains traction
