*Silicon Valley - Several computer technology companies emerged in this part of California in the late 1990s. This led to an abundance of opportunities for entrepreneurs to form their own startup companies. This exponential increase in startups subsequently led to numerous venture capital firms moving to Silicon Valley. More and more startups and VC firms continued to move into Silicon Valley, creating the innovative "cluster" in the area. With the help of nearby research institutions and universities, particularly Stanford University and the University of California at Berkeley, Silicon Valley blossomed into one of the premiere innovative concentrations in the world.
*Boston's Route 128 - Influenced by academia, industry, and government, Route 128 has become a prime geographical area for entrepreneurship and innovation. With the resources available at nearby institutions like Harvard College and The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, as well as through the federal funding given to encourage innovation and research, Route 128 has become one of the most prolific clusters for innovation and policy in the country.
*Research Triangle Park
