The vast majority of cities in the world are nowhere near Silicon Valley in terms of the availability of talent, drive, deep technical expertise, and supportive environment. This is even more true in developing countries where over 80% of the world’s population live.

Allowing passionate people outside of Silicon Valley the opportunity to meet others who might share their passion and have complementary skills, form connections, and possibly find matching teammates to work on challenging projects together is a good reason for supporting YC120.
