7 Boston Startups and VCs Sharing Crazy Holiday Cheer This Year



Given that Boston's tech seems to have a natural propensity towards getting a little rowdy (this year's Holiday Tech Co-Party, if you please), it's fitting that folk aren't holding back this year. From coordinated caroling to Miley mashups, companies and VC firms alike have crafted their own quirky holiday messages that will have you wondering whether that tinsel-esque twinkle in their eyes is a little bit of crazy or just holiday spirit (...or one too many holiday spirits).

We've rounded up the best and brightest and, well, kind of bizarre, bits of seasonal cheer to share with you, straight from Boston's innovation community. Eat your heart out, Papa Claus.

Genuine Interactive created a rapping robotic reindeer by the name of Buck...
And the good people over at Kinvey crafted a spoof dubbed, "Scrooge Loves Boston Startups."

Recognize some faces? The music vid features The GrommetEverTrueFancredStackdriverZagster and, yours truly, BostInno.

Matter.io is putting its 3D printing chops to use tonight when it hosts its Hackmas party to "Hacksessorize the Holidays."

...and making rounds to Boston businesses bearing Flour Café + Bakery cookies to seal some deals – the profits of which will be put towards No Kid Hungry and matched in value.

And even though Dyn's own rendition of "Let It Snow" in the company's holiday card was piping hot...
First Round Capital and Dorm Room Fund's Howard "Miley" Morgan swinging on a wrecking ball in the the VC firm's everything-viral mashup Happy Holidays video was even hotter than hot chocolate yule logs Mrs. Claus their portfolio.
