Istanbul outpaces Dubai, Moscow, and Brussels, the report said
Istanbul is #16 among top 100 emerging ecosystems, said Mustafa Varank, Technology and Industry Minister. Referring to new report by US-based global entrepreneurship research institution Startup Genome, Varank added Turkey’s commercial capital Istanbul, at number 16, outpaced several major cities such as Dubai, Moscow, and Brussels, according to the story by Anadolu Agency.
India’s Mumbai comes first
Data said India’s capital Mumbai comes first, followed by Jakarta(Indonesia) and Zurich (Switzerland) at numbers two and three. “Startups have become a top growth engine of the economy and policymakers are putting more energy and focus into the development of their startup ecosystems,” emphasized the report.
“Europe is the leading continent for Emerging Ecosystems, with 38 cities in the list followed by North America with 32 startup ecosystems and Asia-Pacific is third with 22 ecosystems,” the report claimed.

Would you like to support TR Technews?
Hi everyone,
I’m running Turkishtechnews.com, a website on tech developments from Turkey. I will be covering subjects ranging from startups to gadgets, digital economy to social media. I’m keen on new technologies as well. On top of those, I’m interested in drama and cinema, with one short and one long film script and three plays. Holding a B.A degree in English Language and Literature, I’m a tech journalist with 15 years of experience.
The reason why I’m here is to produce good quality journalism and try to remain independent as much as possible. Currently, journalism is torn between vague relationships between brands and journalists, not only in Turkey but also globally. Under such circumstances to remain independent is crucial and I need your support to do so.
