[[Houston Entrepreneurship]] '''Startups of Houston ''' [[Interactive Maps - The Whole Process]]''' [[Start-Ups of Houston (Map)]]
Use Google Maps to find Longitude and Latitude
*Document how to work [[Geocode.py]] and what might go wrong
Put through R code to make an interactive map
*Finding and Documenting the processes required to run the R code may be necessary
*Works on Carto and looks really cool
*We do eventually need to have a plug in and a Carto account so that we can post this on the Wiki
'''Accelerator Quality Issue Brief'''
[[Houston Accelerators (issue brief)]]
Factors to look at
*Value Added
**How to look at this though?
*Market vs Non-Market
**Philanthropic funding?
***If Non-Profit: Propublica will document contributions
***If for profit: call?
**Founded Bottom up? or Top down?
***See if it was founded by a group or individual with actual industry connections (online or phone)
*Location
**Proximity to resources***We may have to update the startups in Houston map for this*Available Resources (we should generally be able to call or find this on website, these should be things they brag about)**Flex Space**Events**Co-Working**Connections/Mentorship***This can also have a judged value based on Mentor/Connection perceived experiece**Funding (This may be hard but if they offer their own VC we can check through SDC)**Userbase*Leadership/Experience qualifications(Linkedin, profiles on their own websites, other bios)**Have they driven a startup before or been in backseat**What other qualifications do they have*Criteria from the Acc Rankings(as long as we have portfolios then we can use SDC for this)
**VC funding history
**IPO
**Acquired
*Any other reviews possible
**Other articles (Xconomy, Houston Chronicle, etc.)
**Info from actually calling the accelerators (Putting a list of questions up on the discussion for [[Houston Accelerators (issue brief)]]
**perhaps reviews from startups themselves
***Could look specifically into startups that have gone through multiple accelerators hopefully we have phone numbers on [[File:HSM10.xlsx]]
