Nor am I the best designer in the world, you’ve seen better ones. None of us is the best person out there. But you know what? That’s irrelevant! Because we are best for each other.
New York City is well positioned to overtake Silicon Valley as the country's tech innovation leader. For decades, high-technology start-ups followed the Silicon Valley nerdistan model of suburban industrial park development. But growing evidence suggests a more urban tilt may be emerging.
