Hackerspace run as a business, paid for by equity?
DenisM: You will have a freeloader problem - bunch of dudes hanging out and doing nothing. So then you will have to screen them somehow and have an eviction process. Slowly you will morph into a Y-combinator clone. :-)One great advantage of this idea is ability to bump into other like-minded people, which is the primary benefit of going a university. On this aspect the idea has potential.
