I am neither student nor alum, but I've been snooping on your group
because I'm an attorney specializing in VC and start-ups, and I live
in Troy. I try to keep up with the "scene."

I just wanted to point out the above link, and John's plan for an
accelerator in Troy. It might be worthwhile to hook up with him, if
you haven't already. I'm sure there's some overlap and world-famous
"synergies" to be exploited there.

Sounds good. I've been signing up for accelerators like ycombinator
and a few others. But if there is a accelator that's closer it would
be great.

Great timing. I actually had a 10 AM meeting with John and Brian Corrigan
from Agora games. Both seem great and have offered to help with the
Foundry program. This is great that all of these things are getting
started around the same time. Hopefully they will attract a lot of
interest.
