Hot, new Washington D.C. tech accelerator known as The Fort is debuting its inaugural class of startups today. The organization grew out the efforts from early stage VC firm Fortify Ventures LLC, also known as Fortify.vc (that's its URL, too), which had previously invested in nearly dozen D.C.-area tech companies. Over the past 9 months, The Fort's co-founders, Jonathon Perrelli and Carla Valdes, have been busy trying to spark innovation in the nation's capital. They set up the fund, invested in group of startups, created the accelerator, hosted a pitch competition called "Distilled Intelligence" which handed out $25K to winners, and selected a dozen more startups for The Fort's first program.Source: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/E4yFF2B_XXQ/
