University of Waterloo puts students together in a tech incubator residence call Velocity
Universities are often where the cool stuff starts (Google, Yahoo … the Internet), typically like-minded folks find each other in class and such, but that’s pretty random. What if you take a self-selected bunch of techies who are passionate about creating the next big thing and have them all live together?
That’s the idea behind University of Waterloo’s new Velocity residence. Increase the chance that something cool will come up by throwing people together in an environment just for that.
If this is successful I can see it being copied elsewhere. We already do it in the business world, so starting early makes complete sense to me.
