Launching a free virtual incubator

Here's a bit of context: I’ve launched and worked at a top incubator for more than a year and helping founders and people in general is something that I LOVE. I've helped founders to find their first clients as well as raising up to 4M$.

But I noticed that a lot of founders are lonely and cannot afford to live in a big city where they could find an incubator or a place where they would connect and share with other founders.

I think this is unfair because it shouldn’t be reserved to the lucky ones living in capital cities.

Also, it turns out that I have a lot of perks and coupons ($1,000 free credits for Notion, $10,000 for AWS, $4,000 for MongoDB…) that I gathered for months and would help a lot of founders spending less money.

I was thinking about launching a private community (so that we all know each other) for FREE where we would all work, build and share together.

    You might want to check out what @gay is doing and what she learned on free vs. paid memberships. Seems like a great concept, but wonder if asking for some kind of buy-in might make the idea stickier.

      At the beginning I prefer making the membership free, then once I have a solid core I’ll probably make it paying. I totally agree with her on the fact that when you pay, you’re 100% more active than when it’s free, so it might make a lot of sense to do so.
