B2B: The final frontier. (Wikimedia)

Social media startups only seem to get more trendy, and that's sucking innovation away from other spaces--enterprise, for example. "As you know, most tech accelerators and organizations are almost entirely focused consumer-facing startups (e.g., 90-95 percent of startups at Y Combinator, TechStars, most hackathons, etc.)," the organizers of the new Enterprise Tech Innovation meetup wrote in an email. "However, recently, there's been a trend to develop enterprise-focused accelerators which I believe have a hope of bringing the kind of innovation large corporations seek."

Isn't it funny how the fame and glory of social media has inspired entrepreneurs to build hordes of consumer-facing startups warring for user attention in a web-wide popularity contest, when a B2B service could make its founders rich by signing on just a few major clients?

The meetup, which aims to be like the New York Tech Meetup for enterprise tech, is a joint venture between VCs and angels, corporate partners and a newly-launched enterprise accelerator called Ecelerator, with support from the Startup America partnership, the White House-led initiative to drive more resources to American startups.

Verticals include FinTech, AdTech, MediaTech, PharmaTech and PublishingTech, according to the meetup's page--all industries with big dollars to spend.

The inaugural meetup is on Tuesday at 7 p.m. and will feature a panel of corporate executives.
