<p>Philly-based accelerator <a href="http://dreamitventures.com/" target="_blank">DreamIt Ventures</a>, which debuted in New York last year, just announced the 15 startups that made it into the second New York summer session.

"Perhaps the next Fab.com will come from DreamIt," a press rep winked in an email. DreamIt graduates include SeatGeek and SCVNGR.</p>
<p>The companies will have their final demo day on August 8.</p>
<p>CORRECTION, April 28: An earlier version of this story said the Israel and New York programs will run concurrently; in fact, the Israeli participants spend one month in Israel and then join the New York companies.</p>
