Frequently Asked Questions

What is a startup city?

There are three different types of startup cities:

1. A city that attracts startups (ex. Austin, Bangalore, Lisbon)
2. A city that runs like a startup (ex. Miami , Singapore, Dubai)
3. A city that is a startup itself (ex. Culdesac in Tempe AZ, Prospera in Honduras)

For a complete map of startup cities around the world and the methodology for identifying them, check out the Startup Cities Map

So...what exactly is build_cities doing?

We're creating the infrastructure to create, finance, and govern startup cities around the globe starting with fostering Type 1 startup cities (see above FAQ) with digital-first tools. While some of these efforts will naturally start to overlap with Type 2 & 3 startup cities, the core of our efforts is focused on unlocking innovation in every corner of the globe from the bottoms up.

How will you achieve this?

Our mission is broken into 4 phases:

Phase I - build_citizenry (Current phase)
Phase II - build_assets (Subsidize innovation and crowdfund real estate)
Phase III - build_cities (Buy more real estate and digitally thread the properties together)
Phase IV - build_sovereignty (TBD)
‍
See our roadmap for more details.

Will build_cities be a DAO?

Yes; progressively so.

Is this a Network State?
