At the time some tech pundits noted that the advisory board seemed heavy on young founders and DreamIt alumni as opposed to seasoned industry vets. 

That changes today, as DreamIt introduces a second round of advisors sourced mostly from the VC and investment community. 

If any prospective start-ups have been reading The Wall Street Journal, they know young entrepreneurs have the leverage over the suits these days. 

So DreamIt will have a good mix of peers and pros to help guide this inaugural class through what looks to be a heady summer in Silicon Alley.

Also, quick note: DreamIt has openings in their program for solo hackers and strategists, so tech ronin can get in the mix with some ambitious start-up teams.
