vivek wadhwa responds via tc.
I think I understand why Professor Wadhwa is somewhat bewildered by the controversy. I don’t want to act like I’m better than anyone here in Boston. I am, after all, living here by choice. And Silicon Valley is pretty full of itself, more than it should be. There are plenty of idiots there starting stupid companies, just like everywhere else.
But there’s no debate … Boston isn’t even in the same league as Silicon Valley as entrepreneurship goes. There’s lots of data to back up the intuition of anyone who’s lived and worked in both places.
One of the things Pat talks about for Biff Labs is trying to add to the Boston tech scene. I would love to be able to do that.
fred destin weighs in on the vivek wadhwa fiasco.
I love this Fred Destin article about the Silicon Valley vs. Boston brouhaha (clue: there is no discussion) over Vivek Wadhwa’s visit on Monday. It’s balanced and sober. Good read.
