This Saturday marks the last day to apply for the pre-incubator Labs program through Women 2.0, but fear not: men and women can still qualify for the five week program for engineers, designers, and “business and marketing mavens” looking to start developing high-growth technology ventures in SF. Labs doesn’t require company equity or require that you quit your day job, so hop to it, advocates of rapid prototyping.
And if you’re seeking proof that concentrated time through these programs can pay off, look at Alexa Andrzeweski: after founding meal recommendation tool Foodspotting through one of Women 2.0′s incubator programs, the company has taken off in ways the former UX designer would never have expected. She sat down during final presentation night for the summer Labs to discuss picking business partners and surrounding yourself with entrepreneurial-minded individuals.
