《创意新贵》(The Rise of the Creative Class)作者、多伦多马丁繁荣研究所(Martin Prosperity Institute)主任理查德·佛罗里达(Richard Florida)认为,政府要做的第一件事是“不要挡道,即不要‘压制’创业文化。
Why has the creativity of the San Francisco area, epitomised by Silicon Valley, developed while other regions have languished? Is it the concentration of top educational institutions, such as Stanford, or just sheer luck?
为什么以硅谷(Silicon Valley)为代表的旧金山地区的创造力得到了发展,而其它地区却停滞不前?这到底是因为该地区聚集了众多顶尖教育机构——比如斯坦福大学(Stanford)——还是完全因为运气?
Prof Florida argues that the influence of universities is overestimated as a causal factor. However, he concedes, US universities are more effective than counterparts in emerging markets such as China and India “because they encourage the formation of groups and of discussion. The San Francisco Bay Area was always open to art, music, literature and ideas and most places are not open – even if they think they are. These [cities] accrete entrepreneurs over time.
佛罗里达教授认为,大学作为致因的影响力被高估了。不过他承认,美国的大学比中国和印度等新兴市场的大学更富有成果,“因为它们鼓励组建小组和展开讨论。旧金山湾区(San Francisco Bay Area)始终对艺术、音乐、文学和创意持开放态度,而大多数地方却缺乏这种开放性——即使它们自认为开放。慢慢地,创业者便在这些(开放的城市)聚集起来。
