Co-working? yes
Makerspace? yah
Tech startups? check
$200 monthly dues? yep
For profit? nothing stated to the contrary. seems likely.
Hierarchical organizational structure? assumed guilty until proven innocent
Attempt to make their business venture more successful by luring in hackers
from local non-profits? sounds like it
"People frequently ask me how I came to be such an unconventional thinker
and unusual serial entrepreneur. ... " -- Darren Overby
By being unusually modest? No? Oh, wait, is the answer: By co-opting
existing open communities into for-profit organizations?
If this is actually a non-hierarchical non-profit, then color me
embarrassed.
Someone please let me know that I'm wrong. Please.
