==Introduction==
The purpose of this project is to create a hand-collected dataset on incubators in at least five ecosystems that is near-population and does not rely on seed data. This dataset can then be used to validate the coverage of incubators obtained from [[Incubator Seed Data]], perhaps as well as the accuracy of an [[Ecosystem Organization Classifier]]. It is also constructive in our efforts [[Defining Incubators]] and to [[Formulate baseline attributes]] of incubators.
==Chosen Ecosystems==
We hand collected on:
*[[Ecosystem: Washington DC|Washington, DC]]*[[Ecosystem: Burlington VT|Burlington, VT]]*[[Ecosystem: Austin TX|Austin, TX]]*[[Ecosystem: Denver CO|Denver, CO]]*[[Ecosystem: Twin Cities MN|The Twin Cities, MN]] We may hand collect data in several other cities. Next candidates might include:*A city in CA outside of the Bay Area and LA*A city in Silicon Valley*Chicago, as it underwent a radical transformation in the 2000s*Kansas, MI, as the Kauffman Foundation will have local knowledge
We also have material on some other cities in E:\mcnair\projects\ecosystem. These include some [[Emerging Ecosystems]], which had blog articles written about them by [[McNair Staff]]. We also have complete information on Houston, which was the subject of a number of Baker Institute policy reports:
*St. Louis
==Choosing EcosystemsData and results== Our data is currently in this Google sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ve4X8AwgrhQ1SYxmbadQDnm8LHYVOw9977AWPxy68fU/edit?usp=sharing The data is being cleaned and assembled. When this process is complete, the data should also be put in a table on this wikipage. ==Other information==
