ABSTRACT

The good news is that even if people don’t have a strong ecosystem around people , it will not stop people from achieving great things. It will just take more time and effort. Everyone was talking about how cool it was to have a start-up. In theory, that sounds great, but the truth is that the slogans, the facilities and the propaganda can be imitated, but not the resources. So many of these initiatives were a waste of time, others were experiments and only a few worked. Most people believe that being in a big hub brings many benefits—for example, collaboration with other start-ups, ability to find talent with entrepreneurial spirit, ability to find more resources. The differences regarding other ecosystems are, on the one hand, financing and, on the other, the ecosystem itself; the larger, more varied and transversal it is, the more entrepreneurship, creativity and growth of ideas and projects are encouraged.
