Year read: 2023

About the book

Steve Case travels through American startup communities outside the country's dominant technology centers. Through the founders he meets on his Rise of the Rest tours, he describes businesses creating jobs and helping cities reinvent themselves. He argues that talent is more widely distributed than investment and explores how broader access to capital and support could open entrepreneurial opportunities to people and places that established networks often overlook.
