They are lining up like storm troopers.
It looks like a new crop of accelerators, incubators or, as I prefer, cyclotrons have started opening in Toronto. We’ve been talking on and off about Incubators, Accelerators and Ignition since early in 2009.
Here is my list of incubators/accelerators/cyclotrons:
- MaRS Commons
- Incubes
- Multiplicity
- BrightSpark
- Founder Fuel
- Extreme Ventures
- GrowLab
- Mantella Venture Partners
- UW Velocity
- Ryerson DMZ
- MEIC
- Next36
- Bolidea
- bNotions
- Infusion Angels
- Impact Infused
- Toronto Business Development Centre
- Added Bento Dojo
- Added Kinetic Cafe
And this is on top of the existing coworking, shared real estate, available to entrepreneurs in Toronto.
There are lots of opportunity for entrepreneurs to find a mix of real estate, services, and cash for equity in their businesses. My advice is make sure you aren getting more than real estate with benefits. Maybe next we need to provide entrepreneurs a framework for making critical decisions about startup things including incubators ;-)
