325 tech hubs, 77 countries, one free tool to benchmark any of them against another.
Dealroom's Global Tech Ecosystem Index 2026 (cited by FT, Bloomberg, TechCrunch). The full PDF is gated, but the interactive index is open, and it ranks hubs on three separate lenses (raw scale, output per capita, growth rate), so a city invisible on scale can rank top-tier on density or momentum.
The useful move isn't reading the ranking, it's the comparison tool: a founder outside the obvious hubs can pull third-party numbers on their ecosystem's growth and walk into an investor call with Dealroom's data instead of their own optimism.
