I've got some high level ideas, but most of them revolve around getting people working together, especially in a common space. I think physical proximity is important but another potential key is defining clear agreements that reduce the natural inhibitions we have to working on each others projects (especially across communities, like biz types and hackers). We have talent and passion, I think what we're lacking is trust. You can't build trust over a beer and a 15min conversation at a networking event (IMHO).
- necrecious 16y agoI thought there was some startup labs and incubator spaces around here? I keep hearing about something like it at OpenCoffee and Mass Inno.
- mikepk 16y agoIt might have been me :), I've been going to OpenCoffee a lot talking about this idea. I think this fills a gap in the ecosystem between social events and seed accelerators (that are looking for more fully formed startup teams).
- mikepk 16y agoI'm also definitely not the only person looking at this problem. I'm actually hoping we can bring together the various efforts trying to address this gap.
