a few years back they launched this tax free incentive for startups. I tried applying with my co-founder at the time. They rejected us because we were a technology startup. They were looking for companies in the hard sciences. They also had a condition that we had to hire or get sponsorship from one of the colleges.

If they really want to catch the next big startup, they should change some of these restrictions that would attract talent in technology.
