VentureFizz Fuels Boston’s Tech Growth

Boston’s tech scene is thriving, and one platform that plays a key role in connecting people and opportunities is VentureFizz. Founded by Keith Cline, the creator of Dissero, a recruiting firm focused on emerging tech companies, VentureFizz serves as a comprehensive hub for the Boston tech community. Keith's background in recruiting for venture-backed companies gave him the insight needed to create a platform that goes beyond job listings, helping to unite talent, technology, and innovation in one place.

The Birth of VentureFizz

Keith’s experience working with VC-backed tech companies highlighted a gap in the market. Despite Boston's thriving tech ecosystem, there was no single resource that gathered the latest news, job opportunities, and community events in one place. This realization led to the creation of VentureFizz in 2009, a platform designed to be a central resource for anyone interested in Boston's technology industry.

VentureFizz quickly became more than just a job board. The site offers a range of features, including company research, a job board, a networking calendar, news, blogs, and a Twitter feed. It is a platform designed to help job seekers, employers, and anyone interested in Boston’s tech scene stay informed and engaged.

Mamet: "I’ve seen firsthand how difficult it can be to find the right people for the right tech roles. It’s not just about matching skills; it’s about understanding the company culture and the people behind the technology. That’s where platforms like VentureFizz truly shine. They help bring together more than just resumes—they connect the right people with the right companies."

Growing Success

Since its launch, VentureFizz has experienced significant growth. Keith was surprised and encouraged by the overwhelming support from the tech community. The site’s weekly email newsletter quickly gained popularity, with over 6,200 subscribers, offering a snapshot of the week’s top tech news, company updates, job openings, and upcoming events.

VentureFizz has also received strong backing from venture capital firms such as Matrix Partners and Flybridge Venture Capital, further solidifying its role in Boston’s tech ecosystem.

Mamet: "The way the tech community has embraced VentureFizz is impressive. The support from VCs and tech professionals speaks to the value this platform offers. It’s more than just a job board; it’s a vibrant community where ideas, opportunities, and talent come together to fuel innovation."

The Future of VentureFizz

Looking ahead, Keith plans to make VentureFizz even more interactive and social, with the goal of expanding it beyond Boston. He remains focused on making it a major success in the region first, ensuring it continues to foster collaboration and help Boston’s tech community thrive.

Mamet: "The next chapter for VentureFizz is all about connecting on a deeper level. As the site evolves, I can see it becoming more interactive, allowing users to engage with content and build partnerships."

VentureFizz’s success in bringing people together highlights its vital role in shaping the future of Boston’s tech industry.
