In that short amount of time, they’ve grown quickly and are now just about filled to the brim with young entrepreneurs working on a wide range of new startups. But their newest tenant is one they could have never anticipated: Gavin Newsom.

Why is Newsom doing it? “Tobring innovation back to our state government,” as he puts it. “Founders Den provides the kind of collaborative and creative atmosphere to foster new ideas not only for emerging new businesses, but government as well,” he notes.

He also had some progressive ideas in terms of opening up city data, which he outlined in a guest post for us in 2009.

The place was abuzz with excitement with him in it, as he was taking a meeting on behalf of the state. I also had a chance to sit down with him to talk a bit about the idea, the space, and the state of the tech scene in the city — including yes, the state of Twitter and its status as a city tenant.
