I think with any of these sweet deals, founders really need to think, &quot;What&#x27;s in it for them?&quot; This can help people understand where they might be winning or where they might be losing.<p>For Google, this may be an attempt to grow the overall internet user base in these countries which may be correlated with increases in GOOG&#x27;s revenue. It could also be that Google would like to arbitrage ideas from one country and apply these ideas to other countries.<p>Either way, it&#x27;s a great deal that there is no-equity-stake financing with access to free consulting via Google PM&#x27;s. I&#x27;d just always recommend people wishing to take this deal to think hard about what&#x27;s in it for the other party to foresee any possible risks.
