Furqan's hardware lab: ~$500K/year just for the building, ~$1M with people
Furqan is building a hardware and robotics lab (Founders Inc.) at Fort Mason in San Francisco. He estimates roughly half a million dollars a year just to keep the base building, likely double that once he funds the people and projects inside.

“It's going to be a lot. It'll probably cost about half a million bucks a year just to even have the base building in place. And my guess is it'll be double that just from the people that I want to bring in and kind of investments I want to do and what I want to support.”
