Brightspark Ventures departed from their traditional VC roots yesterday and launched Collectionbuddy through Brightspark 3.0 Inc. Collectionbuddy is a social network that enables collectors to capture, catalog and share their collectibles; interact with other enthusiasts; and discover new collectibles to acquire."Brightspark remains very focused on early stage Internet and software companies," said Tony Davis, Co-CEO of Brightspark 3.0.
