đ Why San Francisco Still Builds Global Giants
đWhy San Francisco is Still the Best City for Startups
What happens when a city reshapes itself around AI, venture capital, and relentless ambition?
This weekâs synopsis breaks down why San Francisco continues to be the gravity center for global-first foundersâdespite its challenges.

⥠Why SF Still Matters
The Bay Area remains unmatched in tech density:
- Over 2Ă the VC investment of NYC
- âCerebral Valleyâ leading the U.S. AI funding surge
- A culture where global ambition is the default
đĄ The Founder Advantage
- Unmatched proximity to VCsâSouth Park alone hosts dozens
- Serendipity at scale: weekly events, chance collisions, live podcasts, and industry giants everywhere
- Credibility boost: Being based in SF still signals seriousness and scale potential
- Real-time exposure to the future: AI, frontier tech, and the worldâs strongest operator ecosystem
â ïž The Trade-Off
- The extreme cost of living remains the biggest barrier to entry
đŻ The Takeaway
For founders with global ambitions and a need for constant velocity, SF isnât just a cityâitâs an accelerant.
Every international founder has a moment when the U.S. startup ecosystem suddenly âclicksâ â and it often happens only after spending time inside it. This breakdown reveals the networks, insights, and unfair advantages you only get by being in the U.S. for 90 days. If youâre planning to scale, fundraise, or enter global markets, this might be the single most important read of your week.
