TechCrunch Roundup: 12 Startups, 500 Investors At TechStars NYC Demo Day

Yesterday morning over five hundred investors, mentors, reporters, and entrepreneurs packed the halls of New York City's Cedar Lake Theatre for TechStars Demo Day. The event showcased the dozen startups that were part of TechStars' second New York-based session (the first one ended this past April). And it didn't disappoint. At times the event felt like an awards show: each company was introduced by one of their mentors, who include Buzzfeed President Jon Steinberg and Groupme founders Steve Martocci and Jared Hecht. The mentors often enthusiastically recounted how they'd first met the young startups ? and, in some cases, how they'd immediately decided to invest (hint, hint). Click through for a rundown on each company.
