Company To Watch (for start-ups): Spigit

Company: Spigit

Website: http://www.spigit.com/

Contact: Paul Pluschkell – CEO

About: Spigit is a newly launched community that aims to provide a network of support for start-ups and their founders. The simulation engine provided by spigit is a way to sort of test out your idea. The simulation runs through three stages, where approval badges are awarded for things like buzz percentile, number of views, and expert approval. As a participant in this community, you don’t have to be testing out an idea. You can provide value by offering feedback, interacting with others on the site, and helping the idea to either gain traction or lose steam. A major takeaway is that this community aims to provide a meeting ground for developers, early adopters, those in the industry looking for a job, and investors looking for the next big thing.
