Nashville, “the Silicon Valley of the Music Business”-Richard Florida

Posted by John Pisciotta on Jan 22, 2010

One of my favorite authors, observers, and thinkers, Richard Florida, on Nashville, as the center of the Music Business 2.0 /”Nashville the Silicon Valley of the music business”.  I believe Richard is right in much of his thinking. Increasingly, Nashville sits at the intersection of music, technology, and innovation.

It’s turned into the Silicon Valley of the music business, combining the best institutions, the best infrastructure, and the best talent. And, like Silicon Valley’s broad reach across many high-tech fields from hardware to software, biotech to green energy, Nashville has become the center for multiple musical genres from country and gospel to rock and pop, attracting top talent from across the United States and the globe.
