But what are the «ingredients» of a successful innovation ecosystem?
Collaboration: Strong research and innovation and very close (physical)

“Professor (and Provost from 1955 to 1965) Frederick Terman worried about a “brain
drain” of Stanford graduates to the East Coast, where jobs were plentiful. So he worked

technical scholars” in which the links between industry and academia were fluid. “
