The investors at South Park Commons realize there are a lot of places that promising founders can go for help when they’re starting companies.

There’s the famed Y Combinator, which enrolls about 500 startups per year. There’s Andreessen Horowitz’s Speedrun, which promises to supercharge startup growth. There are even live-in programs like HF0, which offers laundry and meal services so founders can focus on a productive 12-week sprint.
