A Guide to the Boston Tech "Collapse" Everyone Is Arguing About

I never understood the argument for Boston not being part of the tech-heavy landscape. Conveniently not present in these arguments are non-biotech and non-health companies with giant presence, massive earnings, or massive potential earnings: Boston Dynamics, Akami, Wayfair, IBM, Rapid 7, Datadog, DraftKings, Commonwealth Fusion, Raytheon ..

Ergo, if you look at the tech GDP of Boston metro area, its one of the biggest in the entire world. On the entire east coast, only NYC consistently beats it. Boston just doesn't play the same hotdog/not a hotdog AI moonshot games that Silicon Valley falls in love with. And the reason they don't compete is because they choose to stay busy advancing existing tech.
