If you are asking whether or not the organization that you described would be eligible to attend, it is hard to say. We'd need to research your organization in more detail (as we do all applicants). Certainly, any organization that proposes to help entrepreneurs in some meaningful way, without taking advantage of them financially, would most certainly be considered in a positive light, though. Cheers. Scott Hi Ervin – not sure I understand your question. If you are asking whether or not the organization that you described would be eligible to attend, it is hard to say.

I love what you guys are doing. I hate the term Observer. If for no other reason than the observer effect. It's just so passive and implies standing idle. Spectator would be better, it implies these folks can at least boo or cheer. Participant? Startup Enthusiast? Even Lounge Lizard is better then Observer. Scott, great write up.

If your business isn't the kind that could potentially be sold for $50 million or more in 5 years, it's not a StartupLounge business. If it's the kind of business that is typically capitalized with debt, it's also not a StartupLoune business. Here’s perhaps a helpful summary.
