Miami tech started in 2020 when high-profile investors moved to South Florida. Soon after, Miami Mayor Francis Suarez began promoting Miami as a technology hub, coupled with south Florida’s no income state tax; it’s the perfect getaway for those who are used to silicon valley.

What began as a tweet has now turned into a campaign that asks the “techies” to join in and help make Miami better for the industry. Suarez responded to a tweet by Founder’s Fund director Delian Asparouhov. He asked, “What if we move Silicon Valley to Miami?” and Suarez responded with the viral tweet, “How can I help?”

 

Many people are commending to the pro-bitcoin mayor for utilizing Twitter in such a uniting and human way. Suarez stands out in the tech world as being the “How Can I Help?” guy as well as a forward-thinking Mayor on the front of bitcoin. As Ryan Hoover said, Gary Vee would be proud.

As you can see from this video, this Miami Tech event is booming with people and full of good energy. Would you be interested in going to one of these events?

The proof is in the pudding, as they say. Miami’s been ranked #2 on the list of best cities for small businesses. What do you think? Will we get to number 1? Let me know on social and check out last week’s social media round-up. Stay safe and see you next week.
