Denver ranks No. 8 out of the top 25 U.S. tech centers, according to Cushman & Wakefield's new Tech Cities 1.0 report. The top tech cities were determined by analyzing talent, capital and growth opportunity.
San Jose was first, followed by San Francisco, Washington, D.C., Boston/Cambridge and Raleigh/Durham. But, the report noted, mass-transit issues and escalating housing costs in those areas have fanned a tech spillover into secondary markets such as Austin (No. 7), Denver (No. 8), San Diego (No. 9) and Salt Lake City (No. 24).
In all of the top tech markets, the local technology industry plays a large role in the city’s economic trajectory. In certain cities, tech is more deeply woven into the fabric of the city itself, and it is dramatically shaping those local real estate markets.
