奧巴馬7870億美元的救市方案,除咗新聞日日報導,似乎跟我地的關係不大。

Mark Cuban一個別開生面的Open Source Funding Environment方案,遠在香港的大家只要有膽識有好橋,或者亦可以「分一杯羹」。

至少,Cuban開出的條件,話咗比我地知道,金融海嘯之下,點樣既Web 2.0創業項目,唔會食閉羹之餘,仲可以吸引到投資者的青睞:

The Mark Cuban Stimulus Plan – Open Source Funding
http://blogmaverick.com/2009/02/09/the-mark-cuban-stimulus-plan-open-source-funding

I will invest money in businesses presented here on this blog. No minimum, no maximum, but a very specific set of rules. Here they are:

1. It can be an existing business or a start up.
2. It can not be a business that generates any revenue from advertising. Why ? Because I want this to be a business where you sell something and get paid for it. Thats the only way to get and stay profitable in such a short period of time.
3. It MUST BE CASH FLOW BREAK EVEN within 60 days
4. It must be profitable within 90 days.
5. Funding will be on a monthly basis. If you dont make your numbers, the funding stops
6. You must demonstrate as part of your plan that you sell your product or service for more than what it costs you to produce, fully encumbered
7. Everyone must work. The organization is completely flat. There are no employees reporting to managers. There is the founder/owners and everyone else
8. You must post your business plan here, or you can post it on slideshare.com , scribd.com or google docs, all completely public for anyone to see and/or download
9. I make no promises that if your business is profitable, that I will invest more money. Once you get the initial funding you are on your own
10. I will make no promises that I will be available to offer help. If I want to , I will. If not, I wont.
11. If you do get money, it goes into a bank that I specify, and I have the ability to watch the funds flow and the opportunity to require that I cosign any outflows.
12. In your business plan , make sure to specify how much equity I will receive or how I will get a return on my money.
13. No mult-level marketing programs (added 2/10/09 1pm)
