I have an increasing fear that incubators are not sustainable, which is why I really like the "hot-plate" model, of providing the underlying economic efficiencies to groups and companies with various financing statuses. I wonder both HOW these two models (incubator and hotplate) mesh up with what you're doing on Broad Street and IF you think it would be more <strong>sustainable</strong> to get the City involved by creating an official and supported Digital District, like they've done in Paris.
