The Power of Cities

Scott emphasizes the importance of cities in attracting the best and brightest talent for companies, especially young people. He argues that the highest ROI asset for companies is to attract talented 25-year-olds who are willing to work hard and are as good as 40-year-old VPs. He believes that cities are the best places to find such talent and that companies like Google and Facebook are building Xanadu in cities like New York, London, and Sydney to attract them.
