The real competition is globally for California. We think and worry more about competition from Zurich, Singapore, etc. than the places you mentioned.
Those global places have world class universities that are real "threats" to California's university (Caltech, Berkeley, Stanford, etc.) and capital axis (Sand Hill et al) in the way the domestic places you mentioned are not.
- origin_path 4y agoI'm surprised to hear that. What VC in Zürich comes close to even one of the Sand Hill Road VCs?

- outside1234 4y agoIt is universities plus access to capital. I would actually say that Boston is one of the more viable tech hubs for exactly that reason.
