Connected
The biggest threat to any region's startup ecosystem isn't competition from outside.
It's the people inside who won't share what they know.
They think competition lives inside. It doesn't. It lives outside.
Inside, the only way to win is to make everyone around you stronger.
More founders who try. More investors who believe. More institutions that support.
Every connection you don't share is an opportunity that never existed.
The region stays small. And so does everyone in it.
