Leading cities for start-ups

The World’s Leading Cities for Start-Ups – top five are Silicon Valley, Tel Aviv, Los Angeles, Seattle, New York.  The post includes a list of runner up cities as well as the chart (shown here) of cities around the world that are best at nurturing high-tech start-ups.

A new report from the Startup Genome, compiled in association with Telefónica Digital and researchers at Stanford University and the University of California, Berkeley, rates and ranks the cities with the leading start-up ecosystems across the world. Their research draws from their online interactive tool, Startup Compass, which collects benchmarking data from over 50,000 entrepreneurs and start-ups across the world.
