About us
South Park Commons is a community of technologists and builders dedicated to helping each other explore, learn, and get from -1 to 0. We believe good ideas very rarely come about in isolation. We are the anti-incubator, a safe zone that promotes judgement-free exploration and development of new ideas. Our hope as a community is that members find their experience here to be an exposure to problems and perspectives beyond their own, transformational to lifelong learning, and nurturing a dimension of thoughtfulness and responsibility in their ambitions. Most of all, we hope it’s an environment that encourages diving off the deep end together and forming lifelong relationships and legacies on the way to building the next phase of our life’s work.
