This is a project that is giving away money, $1000 at a time, to startups, in Chicago, and this is the first time I've ever heard of them. I'm very confused.
We're moving fast and hope word spreads quickly. The important thing to note is this is a bottom up movement and strives to be as egalitarian as possible.
It seems like a business plan competition, except with a very ambiguous payoff and you're pitching to a bunch of random guys. I'm not saying it isn't legit, but I'd think twice before applying to this.
