I, like Marc, struggle with the funding component. I and others tried to raise money once for a similar set-up, but the risk level is too high for almost everyone except those entrepreneurs that have made their millions and decide to reinvest in their communities (like Boulder TechStars). Maybe now it is time to try again for some funding to spin something like this up. After two years I now see most of the pieces and players are in place . . . now it is time to make it cohesive.Eric Mathewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12211880633307837541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6436625.post-51878170759842460672009-02-14T08:43:00.000-08:002009-02-14T08:43:00.000-08:00I like it. How is the incubator funded? Is it designed to be eventually self sustaining or maybe a sandbox for an angel or high net worth individual? I like the mentoring aspects sometime but I also like to give the right people a long leash to be creative - a long leash, not deep pockets. <BR/><BR/>I agree this is the way to go - fail fast, fail cheap, and start again. People can't be discouraged by an idea not being successful.Marc Diazhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04627055702759966068noreply@blogger.com
