I know of at least one startup company worth at last round $100m looking at relocating to Miami but they are worried about ability to attract capital. What should we do?
People often ask me why I am pushing so hard to expand our tech ecosystem...These are two main reasons...but not ONLY for my children but for those that donβt have what they inevitably will in terms of tools, opportunities, and education...the world is changing and we must adapt.
Miami is taking the world by storm & people are finally taking notice
