4.美國(guó)華盛頓州西雅圖

????代表公司：亞馬遜、微軟,、Zillow

????創(chuàng)業(yè)者平均年齡：34.9歲

????每日平均工作時(shí)間： 8.9小時(shí)

????多年來(lái)微軟（Microsoft）曾一直被視為是西雅圖皇冠上的明珠,。1997年，史蒂夫?喬布斯回歸蘋(píng)果,，兩家科技巨頭間的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)加劇更是強(qiáng)化了這一狀況,，西雅圖強(qiáng)大的科技背景以及地理位置上與硅谷的接近性使得這里成為建立人脈和建立根基的好地方。西雅圖和硅谷有不少相似之處,，包括人員：41%的西雅圖創(chuàng)業(yè)者曾在硅谷工作過(guò),，這是在Startup Genome研究中存在交集最大的兩個(gè)地區(qū)。

4. Seattle, Wash.

????Who launched here?: Amazon, Microsoft, Zillow

????Average entrepreneur age: 34.9

????Average work hours per day: 8.9

????For years, Microsoft was considered Seattle's crown jewel, a position that was only amplified by the return of Steve Jobs to Apple in 1997, upping the competitive ante between the two tech giants. A strong tech history and close proximity to Silicon Valley make Seattle a great place to network and establish roots. Seattle and the Valley share quite a bit in common, including people: 41% of Seattle entrepreneurs once worked in Silicon Valley, the most overlap out of any region in Startup Genome's study.
