Market for startup hedge fund consultants?

Is there a market for consultants to help people launch hedge funds? I got my quantitative hedge fund up and running almost a decade ago, and am wondering if I could share my experience with new startups. Just wondering if its something I could do on the side to distract myself from the daily upheavals of my fund.

thanks for any advice
