What's missing from this list of Y Combinator-like accelerators/incubators?
We're going to have one of our researches maintain this list daily. Anything missing?

- thisisfmu 16y agothey are more like equity rapists rather than a YC-style incubator
- jasonmcalacanis 16y agoHow much do they ask for and what do they provide for said ask?
- thisisfmu 16y ago30 pct equity for matching a year's salary with a cap, paid in four tranches from which HackFwd can opt out without returning shares, plus legal form sheet services. the term sheet is not negotiable and includes restrictions and vesting provisions more typical for VC-scale rounds, which ensures control over the company by HackFwd. in contrast to the hands-off approach YC takes they are essentially a geek babysitting service.

- adnam 16y agoSo Jason Calacanis is compiling a list of Y-Combinator-type companies. Like discovering that North Korea is stockpiling the world's reserves of Beryllium ... who knows why, but one must fear the worst.
- mustpax 16y agoProbably building up page-rank for the Launch.is domain. This is a pretty useful compilation so as far as SEO tactics go it could be a lot worse.
- jasonmcalacanis 16y agoLAUNCH doesn't need any SEO, it's an email driven brand that I'm running at a slight loss/breakeven because: a) I love startups and writing about them and b) I think there should be a more mature and focused publication covering startups then the gossip tech blogs covering who lost their luggage and manufactured angelgate-like stories. The LAUNCH conference is being run at a loss in order to get startups into an A-List conference at a less than SXSW price. I'm personally putting up the half million dollars it will cost to run this event, so that great startups can launch on stage for free. Just like I started the open angel forum in eight cities so that startups could reach angel investors for free. My work/legacy is in helping grow startups. ... but thanks for the cynicism. It is reasonable considering we live in the age of $18,500 demo slots at the DEMO conference and Keiretsu Forum charging $6,000 to pitch supposed angel investors.
- mustpax 16y agoJason, you might want to read my comment again. I am not dismissing the usefulness of your compilation. There's also nothing wrong with building up page rank for a new domain as long as you're adding value doing it. Anyways, best of luck to you in your venture.
- jasonmcalacanis 16y agoRock on. Maybe I got tilted by the parent comment, which was very bitter/trollish. :-)

- jarin 16y agoFormatting and readability!
- webwright 16y agoWhat's missing? Some decent formatting to make it scannable?
