i wouldn't mind giving them percentage, or for that matter, even all of it - we don't care about making money with it - i have my own startup running already. what we want is to attract talent to austria, and make it possible for locals to make the leap.

the question is: do i want someone to hold a large chunk of my equity who does not care about making money? me thinks not.

secondly, you state having your own startup. if this is not a shitty startup it will absorb all of your free time.

what makes you think your lack of time, apparent lack of connections, and lack of interest in financial gain would be a good deal for an entrepreneur?

re: attracting talent to austria, can you get work permits for non-EU citizens?

we have support by politicians - if the submission is good enough, this might work - can't guarantee anything
