Startup incubators and accelerators are popping up everywhere. Business incubators were all the rage before the dot-com bubble (700 for profit, many more non-profit). Now they are back in every community, with the best even waving money at graduates. Most now routinely buy startups for new technology and new products.

Ive written a little bit about the origins of Silicon Valley because I think its important for us to understand how we got here in order to make sure we preserve what is best about our community. The companies I spoke to all agreed that the community there was extremely supportive, especially in the critical ulta-early-stage.

The reason feedback - specifically from actual customers - is usually chosen is because it is more on the science side than the art side, but I surely cant knock those people and teams that can deliver product excellence due to vision, luck or art. -- arrel 215 days ago | link.

At a high level, I definitely agree that being an entrepreneur and being in school dont necessarily mix. I would definitely have applied had there been a program while I was attending school. You definitely can't get a full appreciation for life in a start-up until you are on the inside. How Much Diligence is Due.

At Smart Bear we were selling a code review tool, and if you paid $600 for Perforce, it was very hard for me to charge $600 hundred for an add-on to Perforce that did code review. Each one starts from a different place and a different definition of that. Q: Enterprise by definition is settled law. Why not take a stab?
