Entreprenurial spirit
Austin ranked high for entrepreneurial spirit
Austin has a longstanding reputation as being one of the greenest U.S. cities, and now it has another honor worth boasting about.
Entrepreneur.com has named the Capital City the best in the country when it comes to supporting start-up companies.
In identifying 50 cities that best promote entrepreneurial pursuits, the publication touted Austin’s innovative spirit, commerce and emerging technology culture.
Austin is home to many successful start-up companies, and in the past year Facebook Inc., LegalZoom Inc. and Host Gator LLC have announced offices in Austin.
This year alone has seen 31 relocations and expansions in the technology-related space, representing nearly 3,000 new jobs, according to the Austin Economic Growth and Redevelopment Services Office.
