Great question. We are providing hosting services and/or coaching to Startups that are qualified through a few channels. Incubators/VC's/Universities/Bootstraps. It did start with Incubators a few months back but the others will be reflected on the site very soon in more detail.

- noodle 15y agothere's a pretty large gap between startups that are in incubators or VC funded and those who are bootstrapped. can you elaborate any on what rackspace is planning on doing for bootstrapped projects and/or how someone is "qualified", since info isn't live yet?
- NLongo 15y agoSince the others have a 'process' for what constitutes a good idea, business plan, marketing plan, etc.. what we will be doing is bringing some of that internally where our team does the same thing for bootstraps. It's exciting stuff and we are trying to include everyone.
- JshWright 15y agoWhat's a great question?
- NLongo 15y agoThe first question asked was: "Is it just me, or is this not a "program" but a sponsorship of other incubators?"
- abyssknight 15y agoThanks for stopping by to provide this clarification, and additional information. It means a lot that you took the time to post, especially in this venue, about what's happening with Rackspace and startups. Definitely looking forward to the unveiling. :)
- NLongo 15y agoNo problem buddy. The Startup Program is something we all have a real passion for because of our individual backgrounds and how Rackspace got started.
