Not sure "relocate" is the best word. I've been freelancer for 8 years and one of my client is a YC startup that is and has always been in Paris, France.
See https://www.ycombinator.com/atyc/ https://www.ycombinator.com/atyc/ "We ask the founders of each startup we fund to move to the Bay Area for the duration of their cycle"
and https://www.ycombinator.com/faq/#p3 https://www.ycombinator.com/faq/#p3 "Of course, after the 3 month program, you can go wherever you want."
- yellowapple 7y agoIf the founder (implicitly the leader or one of the top leaders) has to relocate, even for three months, then I fail to see how "relocate" is anything but the best word, especially when a company is still in a stage that would benefit from incubation.
