Both Sides of the Table
JULY 10, 2012
I think NY has always – by definition – been urban. So we’ve seen an explosion in the number of startup companies and subsequently a huge burst in the number of incubators. These days it’s Santa Monica and Venice. But there does seem to be huge startup energy around the Flatiron District / Union Square.

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).

The definitive article about 33 Flatbush--the kind of commercial building you would drive by a million times without thinking twice-- was written in the NY Times a few years ago.

What I definitely don't want to do is to do another startup--I think I'm much better at helping other entrepreneurs and being generally "entrepreneurial" than actually running a company. Run an accelerator/incubator? That leaves a wide range of other things to do that I'm currently considering.
