Mass High Tech - July shows early-stage investors eyeing economic recovery

Exerpt from article:

While June may have seen a deluge of rain in New England, July was witness to the start of early-stage venture funding raining down on area technology firms, in what experts describe as a good sign for an improving economy.

"The software sector was a big winner in July. Sales lead startup NetProspex Inc. received $1.4 million of a $2 million Series A round. Returning investors include U.K.-based angel Richard Tahta of Episode 1 Partners. The funding represents the first venture dollars for the Waltham-based aggregator of sales leads."
