The Residency: 3D Printing and Hardware Startup Incubator in Silicon Valley
There are many incubators for software startups but not so much for hardware and manufacturing. Let’s change that.
The Reidency is a 3d printing and hardware startup incubator for early stage entrepreneurs. It is specifically designed for entrepreneurs outside of Silicon Valley who may have a great idea, first prototype, or a few customers, but lack of access to Venture Capital and a network to grow the business.
The business model is a spin on traditional Incubators. We give a small amount of funding to support a few months of work in a residency program with access to advisors, and also materials and equipment. We also will provide services for operating in Silicon Valley, and potentially setup satelites in othe important innovation hubs around the globe. This will be a for profit business that makes many small bets on young hungry entrepreurs, knowing that most may fail but a few may succeed and do things that change the world for the better – with hardware!
