 # Georgia Tech CREATE-X
 
-TODO
+(*This section kindly written by Yehowshua*)
+
+Yehowshua is a student at Georgia Tech currently pursuing a Masters in
+Computer Engineering - to graduate this summer. He had started working
+on LibreSOC in December and wanted to to get LibreSOC more funding so
+I could work on it full time.
+
+He originally asked if the ECE Chair at Georgia Tech would be willing
+to fund an in-department effort to deliver an SOC in collaboration
+with LibreSOC(an idea to which he was quite receptive). Through Luke,
+Yehowshua got in contact with Chistopher Klaus who suggested Yehowshua
+should look into Klaus's startup accelerator program Create-X and perhaps
+consider taking LibreSOC down the startup route.  Robert Rhinehart, who
+had funded LibreSOC a little in the past (*note from Luke: he donated
+the ZC706 and also funded modernisation of Richard Herveille's excellent
+[vga_lcd](https://github.com/RoaLogic/vga_lcd) Library*)
+also suggested that Yehowshua
+incorporate LibreSOC with help from Create-X and said he would be willing
+to be a seed investor. All this happened by February.
+
+As of March, Yehowshua has been talking with Robert about what type of
+customers would be interested in LibreSOC. Robert is largely interested in
+biological applications. Yehowshua also had a couple meetings with Rahul
+from Create-X. Yehowshua has started the incorporation of LibreSOC. The
+parent company will probably be called Systèmes-Libres with LibreSOC
+simply being one of the products we will offer. Yehowshua also attended
+HPCA in late February and had mentioned LIbreSOC during his talk. People
+seemed to find the idea quite interesting
+
+He will later be speaking with some well know startup lawyers that have
+an HQ in Atlanta to discuss business related things such as S Corps,
+C corps, taxes, wages, equity etc…
+
+Yehowshua plans for Systèmes-Libres to hire full time employees. Part
+time work on Libre-SOC will still be possible through donations and
+support from NL Net and companies like purism.
+
+Currently, Yehowshua plans to take the Create-X summer launch program
+and fund Systèmes-Libres by August. Full time wages would probably be
+set around 100k USD.
