It's probably not anywhere in america.
Szhenzen is pretty close to being the global center of hardware innovation and getting into software in a climate where state funding and commercial enterprise is merged in a way california havent seen since the rise of modern liberatarian economics in the 80ies.
The birthplace of the web at CERN is also still in play as a center where lots of things happens.
And thats before we head into the fringes where the oil exploration industry is leading in VR research almost as an afterthought of having to process and visualize the kind of big data most big data start ups only dreams about being able to handle.
Remember that Xerox wasn't an IT company but a printing/photocopier copier so it's just as reasonable to expect that the next big leap will come from someone that is not currently seen as an IT giant, as to go looking within the Californian IT industry.
- tellarin 10y agoThe Shenzhen model is really nothing anywhere close to Xerox PARC. If any place gets close, I'd say it's Microsoft Research. But even that has changed a lot in the last few years. Disclaimer: I work there.
