"Recipe for a Vibrant Entrepreneurial Ecosystem"
Presented by: Yan-David Erlich, Serial Entrepreneur, Active Early-Stage Investor
Yan-David Erlich looks at what made Silicon Valley fruitful in the first place, looks at some early wins in other geos (Boston, New York, LA) and tries to formulate a recipe for how to build a vibrant technology ecosystem. Today, as “software eats the world” and tech becomes a predominant driver – and disruptor – of new jobs, communities need to become vibrant tech centers to thrive in tomorrow’s tech-driven economy. Can a city replicate Silicon Valley’s success? Watch the video now and find out.
