"If we’re serious about tackling the world’s biggest problems, we need to be more optimistic. We need to believe that it is possible to tackle them and lean in — critically — to the things that will make that vision a reality."

One piece of advice I’ll offer to other ecosystem builders now — slow down and don’t try to do so much so fast.

New 2019 data from Ft Worth shows entrepreneurs created 12,500 jobs while 2390 jobs came from corporate relocations. In short, new companies generated 5.2X more jobs.
It's time for cities to change the way they drive economic growth.
Thx @CameronCushman
