Reasons to go: - Meet new entrepreneurs in your physical location or technology space. - Get free advice from great mentors. - Be involved in the community. - Increase your chances if you apply next year by learning about TechStars. - 5% is significantly more likely than life happening, and yet here we are. Reasons not to go: - You miss 8 hours of development, of which you'll probably work for 4 at best. - Might catch a cold from all the hand-shaking. Seems like a no-brainer to me, but I'm biased because our company got in to last year's Boston program.
