I think we really need another SV but in a jurisdiction that makes sense. At least I do, neither a resident of USA nor wanting to be there.
Unfortunately, while finance centers are aplenty, tech centers are much more sparse.
- mahyarm 12y agoThese centers are developed by capital willing to invest in risky technology start ups. That is the first-step oxygen that is required to have a SV-style tech hub. You can import the talent in afterwards. I left Canada because it's mostly resource wealth that makes the money there. There isn't nearly as much capital available for software in Canada as SF. SF has more $30mm+ net worth families/individuals than all of Canada combined. And a 1/3rd of those Canadian families made money from resources.
