Our startup is in GA, and I would say no. There is little vetting of business model to get in GA. In fact, I would not even consider GA an incubator. They don't take equity, nor do they offer advising. It's more like super cool startup friendly paid office space.

The value we've gotten has been being around really smart startups working on cool projects, and being able to share ideas.

So there was no discussion with the startups at GA about the funding?

I can second this -- it's not an incubator or EIR at all.
