Do you know any entrepreneurs who could use $20k in cash, $20k in free stuff, and 20 successful mentors for their startup?

I need your help to get the word out to entrepreneurs about a program that may help them.

I am a mentor and investor in Capital Factory, a new seed capital and mentorship program in Austin. We're choosing 3 startups to spend 10 weeks here to build their company. They receive $20k in cash, $20k in free stuff, and 20 successful mentors as investors. The 10 weeks end in August with a Demo Day to potential investors. It's the mentor's job to ensure they head in the right direction, and introduce them to potential customers and investors.

This is an unbeatable opportunity for a technology-based entrepreneur to get an accelerated start, especially in tough times. The reason I'm emailing you is the deadline of April 3 to apply is fast approaching. I want any entrepreneur in your network to have the opportunity to consider this program.

Could you take a few minutes to forward this to your network? Or introduce me to someone who may be interested?

If you're on Twitter or Facebook, please update your status with:

I appreciate your help. Think of it as rebuilding our economy one startup at a time!

Josh, I really want to get into Capital Factory for this summer. I plan to have the app in this week. I am working on the video aspect before I submit my final application. Are you guys only looking for the sexy web 2.0 companies to work with? IE people working on apps for twitter, facebook, social media space etc Or would a proven business model from the web 1.0 world have a chance like a lead aggregation site similar to a ServiceMagic, LendingTree, TheKnot business model stand a chance to get in?
