A biotech management recruiter commented:
MA will pull away with the lead soon from Bay Area
based on cost of living. I have senior management
members tell me daily that they'll move anywhere

- tormeh 9y agoDoes anywhere in the world have venture capital the way SF/SV has? No, and suggesting otherwise is absurd. Boston has the best research institutions, but cash is king.
