TC50 Finalist SeatGeek Raises Series A Funding, Revamps Website

SeatGeek was definitely one of the finalists of the most recent TechCrunch50 conference that I thought were most interesting from a business model perspective. Apparently, I'm not the only one, as the New York-based startup has just closed a Series A round of funding led by a group of four entrepreneurs/angel investors. The fledgling company, which bills itself as a 'Farecast for sports and concert tickets' , had earlier raised $20k in seed financing from DreamIt Ventures , and has now secured in between $500k-$1 million more (no exact amount could be given due to some contingencies built into the financing).
