Incubators: A Booster Shot for Tech Entrepreneurs?
IT'S TOUGH ON SAN DIEGO TECH ENTREPRENEURS these days. Startup costs can be tremendous. And in such a competitive and growing industry, coming up with original funky names (Zambig?) must be getting more difficult. But there’s hope: Incubators to the rescue! The model is relatively new to San Diego, but it holds a lot of promise because it allows big thinkers with small pockets to get access to critical lab hardware or office space for an affordable price or at no cost at all, thanks to donations or subsidies from venture capitalists or large corporations looking for a direct line to the next big thing.

D&K Engineering and ecoATM Partner to Develop Automated, Self-Service eCycling Kiosks
Designing and developing a custom kiosk can be a complex and costly process. For a start-up organization creating a product that will be successful in the market while managing development and manufacturing costs is critical. For ecoATM, a “retail automation” company based in San Diego, outsourcing the engineering and manufacturing of their kiosk was the perfect solution. But where would they look to find a good outsourcing partner? With an initial business model that envisioned a single model kiosk versus a full product line of various kiosks, it didn’t make sense for ecoATM to internally staff up a team of designers and multi-disciplinary engineers that would then not be needed once the project was complete. Also, building in-house manufacturing capabilities would require tens of millions in capital equipment, facilities and employees—not to mention valuable time. For a small start-up, that huge investment was definitely not an option.

CLOSE-UP: FROSTBYTE VIDEO
FrostByte Video Inc.’s goal is to get amateur camera-holding dads off the ski slopes. On past skiing and snowboarding trips with their families, FrostByte chief executive officer Rick Korfin and chief technology officer Mike Sandler remember tediously filming their kids, nieces and nephews. “That leads us to do crazy things like skiing backwards on the mountain,” said Korfin, who grew up in upstate New York and is a regular at Mammoth Mountain and various ski spots in Utah. “Cameras get dropped and people ski into things – and you end up not being in any pictures yourself.” Their concept, FrostByte Video, is a camera system that will be installed at U.S. ski resorts, and will film novices having a lesson with an instructor or semi-pros zipping down a mountain.
