Unfortunately for Cleveland, people are so caught up on content that they continue to miss out on great opportunities and drive people away (i.e. Charles Geschke, co-founder of Adobe). Cleveland tends to care more about Social Capital and where someone went to high school (i.e.University School, Hawken, Hathaway Brown), or whether they can be comfortable with an idea (i.e. Manufacturing vs. Technology), than the fundamentals of doing a start-up. If Cleveland wants to have a strong culture of entrepreneurship, then it will have to be more open to different ideas and people, and far more focused on successful methodology that is not invented in Cleveland! There are signs in the civic arena that people are open to this... but the formation of an entire culture that is this way is going to take a long, long time.
