🏘️#Boston is home to a vibrant startup ecosystem across many verticals, such as #cleantech#biotech and #robotics.
In the 2️⃣nd #ecosystem#showcase talk we’ve learned how #startups#researchers and #planners, found a common language and created one of the world’s leading tech hubs to date,… and how a multi-stakeholders approach supports the startup ecosystem to thrive.

⚙️The #leitmotifs of the discussion were ➡️ opened community ➡️ reach out ➡️come together to make a difference

👉🏻Here are the most important #takeaways for the RO startup ecosystem growth:
▶️geography of innovation is not even, as the worlds’ innovation is not flat, it’s spiky
▶️it is important for Romania to understand the next #programming#period and make a change, #now is a #key#moment(!)
▶️@Greenlabs -> we are here to serve the entrepreneurs
▶️#climate #change is extremely important -> we need to make it a common goal to raise the issue of climate change globally
▶️industry 4.0 – #green#industrial#revolution -> an inclusive revolution
▶️#collaboration among startups, peer to peer connection -> entrepreneurs need to come together, pull resources to scale their companies
▶️entrepreneurship is a lonely journey and founders need to have each other, share tools and techniques -> they need a safe space to test their ideas
▶️the #investors#role is to spur ecosystem growth, ✔️to be available to help the entrepreneurs, ✔️to make sure entrepreneurs have the resources they need and the right mindset, that will attract the investors, ✔️to have the opportunity to share knowledge, to collaborate, not to keep findings to themselves
▶️#internship programs in the #venture#firms to multiply the effect and attract students to different fields
