Note***: ''Events include meetups, workshops, info sessions etc. We do not want to count them separately since it is difficult to do so. Most companies put all the events on the same section and do not put event types in the titles of the events. We have to look into the details of the events to find out the type and even we do so some events descriptions do not allow us to determine the type easily. Differentiating the types of the events demands more time and effort and therefore is not suitable to be a mechanical turk project.''
*'''Onsite Mentors''': ''UPDATE: written, not published, on amazon's mechanical turk site''
'''Considerations'''
*Difficulties Encountered:Companies put the information about mentors or mentoring programs in very different places. Some have a specific link or section for mentors/mentoring programs, some put them as a sub-section under 'About' or 'Our Team', others may put them under membership 'benefit' or 'perks'.
*Expected Time to Complete: 10 - 40 seconds
*Expectation of Results (accuracy of turk, comprehensiveness):
*Other Comments: Some companies give more detailed information about mentors or mentoring programs, but some only mention them in one line. Do we need to treat them differently?

*'''Number of Members''': ''UPDATE: written, not published, on amazon's mechanical turk site''
'''Considerations'''
*Difficulties Encountered: Some companies don’t list all members but only selective ones. Some companies do not separate current members and alumni and goes like:"we have served more than 120 startups..."

*'''Sponsors and Partners''':''UPDATE: written, not published, on amazon's mechanical turk site''
'''Considerations'''
*Difficulties Encountered: The company put some other companies' logos on its webpage(usually at the bottom of the homepage) such as Google and Amazon without saying that they are the sponsors or partners
