Next Wednesday night, I'm hosting a roundtable discussion between Brooklyn innovation community stakeholders on how to make this side of the river a better place to create, build businesses and grow.

A lot has been written about whether or not we should be encouraging 1000 startups to bloom and the proliferation of incubators, as well as the growth of angel investing.

Business incubators for sharing services were all the rage back in the days of the dot-com bubble (700 for profit, many more non-profit). Incubators I hear mentioned most often include YCombinator , led by Paul Graham in Silicon Valley, and TechStars , located in Boston, Boulder, New York City, and Seattle.

And it is one of the reasons that NYC is developing a vibrant technology community.

I certainly would! and now croudfunding sites.
