=TestVariables for Hubs=We will be creating a "Hubs scorecard" to determine how hub-like potential spaces are. In order to do so, we will evaluate the places based on certain variables. Previous variables for potential hubs were collected. Below, we list those as well as other variables we think might be helpful to build out the scorecard. Ideally, we would have the following variables (not collected previously):*Onsite VC/Angel/Investors (Count or binary)*Onsite Mentors (binary) --- ''Are these the same as advisers?''*"Office hours" with investors or mentors (binary) --- ''note: previously collected included number of events, but did not separate them into categories (e.g. networking events, workshops, etc.). We view this separation as important''*Onsite temporary workshops (binary or count) *** '''see mechanical turk'''*Networking Meetups (Binary or count) *** '''see mechanical turk'''*Sponsors and Partners (binary and list) --- a''re these the same?''*Alumni Network (binary) --- ''not all potential hubslist this and the fact that some do might indicate its importance''*Num of Companies --- ''to help determine size as getting physical sqfootage is difficult''*Nonprofit (binary) --- ''helpful in determining goals of potential hubs''*Mission Includes Key Buzzwords (e.g. "ecosystem", "community") --- ''help separate simple coworking spaces form hubs'' Example of Prior Variables Collected:*Specific Industry -- ''defined as LinkedIN Self Identifier, no categories just plain text. We think what we really want is to see if they have a specialty (e.g. healthcare)''*Num of Events --- ''relatively complete inputs, but from March 2016 (see above as well)''*Price for Single Space --- ''defined as price for flexible desk, relatively complete inputs''*Price for Office --- ''no inputs''*Twitter Activity (Multinomial or Count) --- ''High=2/Moderate=1/No=0, no explanations on how to categorize the activity. Also no handles''*Size (sqft) --- ''no records for majority of the companies''*Num Conference Rooms --- ''no records for majority of the companies''*Onsite accelerator (binary) --- ''relatively complete inputs''*Onsite code school (binary) --- ''relatively complete inputs''*Community Membership (binary) --- ''relatively complete inputs'' =Test2==
