Cambridge, MA -- (SBWire) -- 09/22/2015 --iPrytaneum today announced that the company has been chosen by Constant Contact, Inc. to join its Small Business Innovation Program, a four-month residency program designed to support entrepreneurs and startups as they solve problems for small businesses. iPrytaneum will join other startup class members in Constant Contact's Innovation Loft (InnoLoft), a 30,000 square foot office space at the company's Waltham, MA headquarters.

"iPrytaneum is announcing that we will be launching the first platform that will level the playing field and promote a nonprofit's voice by providing a space that brings together the public, brands and the nonprofits in a single space.

"Our organizations share an incredible passion for helping nonprofits succeed, so getting into the InnoLoft program is huge. Having the ability to work with some of the industry's best and brightest to help solve major problems that affect nonprofits in an environment that fosters innovation, creativity and amazing resources – absolute game changer."

The Small Business Innovation Program is a first-of-its-kind accelerator program, entirely hosted and run by Constant Contact. It's designed to support entrepreneurs who are passionate about helping small businesses, by building new products, features and services. Twice a year, small classes of startups take up residence in the InnoLoft: 30,000 square feet of lab, test kitchen, play room, business school, safe space, and launch pad for startups to work, dream, test, disrupt, strategize and plan.

iPrytaneum uses an integrated, multi-faceted approach, combining mobile and web applications and digital marketing expertise to create much higher exposure for nonprofit organizations, while helping them run highly engaging challenges and customized fundraising campaigns.
