Tried searching incubator TX but it looks like only the name and text descriptions is searched. Tried searching "incubator a", "incubator b", "incubator c" and each had less than 500 results, so that ''might'' work.

The purpose of this project is to build a database of incubators, perhaps as well as other ecosystem organizations, from AngelList.

So Far

Process from before:

  • Opened source link (http://www.angel.co)
  • Typed "incubator" in the search box
  • Clicked on "Search for 'incubator'

Revised process:

  • Visit https://angel.co/search?q=incubator
  • Click More (a lot)
  • Save the HTML page as E:\projects\AngelList\AngelList.html
  • That gets you 500 (out of 1,447 claimed results)
  • Process the HTML using Regular Expressions to produce AngelListPages.txt, which is in the format:
    • URL\tConame
  • Note that restricting to "Companies" reduces it to 1,339 results.

Tried work around with pages:

But 40 results per page, page 13 ends with No Results Yet after More, and page 14 opens with it. So still capped at 500 results.

It appears from the format of results that Angellist has a type "incubator", though some likely incubators have other types (e.g., BMW iVentures Incubator is a "VC Firm" and Austin Technology Incubator is a "Company".
