We didn't look for funding; we didn't try to recruit backers; we certainly didn't spend a crap-ton of money to renovate. We simply took it upon ourselves to make the idea happen.<br><br>In August of 2007, The Creative Space was born. 5 guys and some ikea desks later we were setup and running. We're now up to 13 people and several other incubators started popping up down the hall, and around the corner from us.<br><br>What I've found is that good ideas spread, and like moths to light... we've attracted others. Organically grown and unplanned.Cody Marx BaileyFri, 23 May 2008 15:53:14 -0000Re: What if Austin had a Startup _District_? the story thus farhttp://blog.think27.com/austin-startup-district-story/#comment-1748086Thanks for the mention.
