The real question is why haven't they been leaving sooner? With the power of telecommunications and the cost of doing business/living there.... it just doesn't make sense to me for a startup to try and grow there.
- westpfelia 8y agoThey have. A ton of start ups started going to Austin and Denver/Boulder. Plus start up communities are happening in every major city.

- sanderjd 8y agoThat's the part I'm always surprised by: the capital seems to continue preferring to pour a bunch of excess money into landlords' pockets rather than open little offices in other cities, fly to meetings a bit more often, or do more business by video conference.
- wrecursion 8y agoMaybe they ARE the landlords!!?!?! :P
- wrecursion 8y agoAh... limitless amounts of capital. Yes.. this is definitely something I have no grasp of. :)
