An interconnected startup community is one that shares common values and whose interests support the entrepreneurs, their ventures, and the startup community as a whole. What is a startup community?

Just because you put up a structure doesn't mean it's going to sprout a whole innovation ecosystem. These are people whose business it is to support startups. You can get just about any wealthy person to part with some small portion of their wealth to put into risky investments, but these people don't contribute back to the ecosystem.

Ycombinator is the largest and most successful startup incubator in history, and it was started right here in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

None of these reasons stem from the idea that Brooklyn is where better startups will be born.
