The point here is that service providers (lawyers, etc...) have money and will profit from connections with entrepreneurs. The startups are trying to raise money so charging them for the privilege is wrong. The organizers of these conferences that charge are exploiting people who desperately want to fulfil their dreams.
exploiting people? r u kidding me? are you a socialist? shoudl lawayers offer their services to startups for free? shoudl a VC offer startups money for no equity? should your landlord offer you free office space?
What a bunch of nonsense! is this Jason CalicANUS?
