New Techハブとしてマイアミに注目
コロナ渦でリモートワークが広がる米国でマイアミがNew Tech ハブとして注目を集めています。ソフトバンクはじめ著名なファンドがテック スタートアップを対象にマイアミでファンド立ち上げ。これまでのシリコンバレー、ニューヨークを離れ一年を通して温暖な気候、素晴らしい海の眺め、低率の法人税、個人住民税 ゼロ、比較的に安価な生活費といった環境を享受できるマイアミに若い世代が移住を進めています。
SoftBank, the world’s largest tech investor, has launched a $100 million ‘Miami Initiative” to fund local technology start-ups, on top of a $5 billion fund geared exclusively towards Latin American startups, based out of Miami.
In the past few months, a number of major tech stars and venture capitalists have also bought multi-million dollar homes in Miami, like former Google CEO, Eric Schmidt, Shutterstock founder, Jon Oringer, Reddit co-founder, David Blumberg, and some members of the so-called ‘PayPal Mafia’, Peter Thiel and Keith Rabois.
Florida, also known as the Sunshine State, does not have a state income tax, unlike California which charges up to 13% and the 9% paid by wealthy New Yorkers.
