FinTech pt.4
summary
Panel describes concrete city tactics: running a live Evolero event wall that pulls tweets via the #dldTelAviv hashtag, building tech hubs like iHub that use human‑centered design to “democratize innovation,” and labeling clusters with the French Tech label to attract startups. Cities mention industry anchors (Airbus, Galileo) and 100,000 students in Toulouse, stress fixing public Wi‑Fi, and point to fiscal tools such as a startup tax break (deferred taxes / R&D rent exemptions) plus grassroots programs—training cab drivers and students as brand ambassadors.
