Betaworks is an Internet media company with a number of investments in three categories: the now web (real-time), the context web (structured data), and the social web (social media).
The company is different than a traditional venture capital firm in that it operates as a stock company with shareholders and not a firm with limited partners.
The company was the original investor in Summize, the social media search engine that was acquired by Twitter in 2008. (The company is now a shareholder in Twitter.)
The company often co-invests with NYC-based Union Square Ventures and Boston-based Spark Capital.
