Why not just build a YC branded "campus"? With 40 Gbe wired offices, dorms, labs, dining halls and the lot. Startup School could be expanded 10-100X. And teams wouldn't have to waste all that precious time in the early days?
- rconti 8y agoMy reply was going to be "that's not their core competency" until I read your last sentence and realized "well, YC is probably better at this than the companies they fund doing it individually.."
- erichurkman 8y agoAlternate theory: it's important for a young company to practice things like finding office space, figuring out coffee machines, building independent team culture, learning how to recruit, filing state taxes, etc when they are early and mistakes are easier to fix. Good companies are not just the product they ship.
- trobertson 8y agoMake that part of the YC process. Mock renting of space, filling it, etc. Have reviews of how they did, things they considered, etc.
