I wish there was more content here than a few mentions of different scaling laws. It's interesting that cities and organisms have similar infrastructure scaling, while corporations and cities are different. However, I think there are some real outliers... SiliValley is an outlier as low density, high growth, high invention. If you asked me why, I'd say the tech focus: Moore's Law, Nielsons's Law, and Social Networks. In particular, what I found missing and he doesn't talk about is the Internet and what it means for the effective distance between, people, companies, employees, etc. Because that is overlaid on our physical structure (like phone lines for pizza delivery), it will change the power laws. Depending on the uptake, it may change them more locally than the global average.
