Fair point - I wasn't very clear. Often diversity is simplified to gender or race, etc. In my definition diversity means including people who look, think, act, work and study different. I expected YC to be unidimensional with this conference and have people who are exactly like their typical accelerator applicant - young, white males, working on very technical products and startups - except female, attend. However, when I met the other attendees I saw that YC had transcended that uni-dimensional idea and brought in people from all walks of life, technical or not, local or not. I think that's a multi-layered definition of diversity. YC did a great job of expanding itself from "tech startup incubator" to a facilitator of dreams, technical or not, startuppy or not. Does that make more sense?
