According to Forbes Magazine (forbes 400):
The most valuable natural resource in the 21st century is brains. Smart people tend to be mobile. Watch where they go! Because where they go, robust economic activity will follow.
If you agree, then put your chips on cities that: a) attract smart people; and b) are low-cost enough to incubate a business so it won't need much outside capital, which is dilutive to wealth building. In other words, look for cities with these attributes:
• Universities. Especially those with strong science and engineering departments. Modern innovation springs from a deep understanding of physics, electronics, math, chemistry and biology--not Proust. Business schools and law schools are nice, too, but are of ancillary importance. There is an interesting twist to this. In the old days a state's flagship university, with its law and liberal arts schools and alumni networks, carried a higher prestige than the ag or tech school. A degree from the University of Iowa hoisted you further up the Des Moines business and social ladders than a degree from Iowa State University. But this pecking order could reverse itself in the 21st century. The Iowa States of the world are more adept at creating scientists, engineers, patents and R&D grants--the seed corn of wealth.
Most of their students come from abroad, like India and China.
