It’s the Dogpatch life

In the US, it’s got familiar names such as Instagram on its list of graduates.
As Dogpatch Labs Europe opens in Dublin this week all eyes will be on the types of digital businesses that are expected to emerge from it.

Dogpatch Labs are dynamic open plan spaces for entrepreneurs working on new business ideas – hardly a new concept. Set up by Polaris Venture Partners – to connect entrepreneurs and help founders conceive and launch start-ups – the difference is the new Dublin facility is the first to open outside of the US.
In effect the European arm of the initiative, it is expected that it will interesting start-ups to Dublin from Europe and beyond.
The Dublin lab will be open plan space housing an estimated 30 teams working on new businesses at varying but early stages of development. Start-ups generally have six months in their patch – best of luck to the graduates of 2012!
