Try a two-step process here.

1. Passion - what area excites the team the most? Health, AI, FinTech, Hardware? You are going to spend a few years building a brand, company, and product. The more connection you have to it the better.

2. Network! Be inclusive. You are basically saying you can build at scale quickly. Ideas come easily from interaction. Plan the next 30 days to scour every event you can and go. Listen, don't build. See what pops for the team. Iterate from there until something bubbles up.

Let's ignore the morality claim and look at this from a pure productivity and intellectual standpoint. It has been proven, many times over, that being active (moving) will make you think better, work better and basically outperform those who do not. So if you need a reason to move around do it for job performance.
