Previously seen solely as a tourist attraction due to its beautiful year-round weather, Miami has evolved far beyond simply being a vacation spot. After seeing a massive increase in population throughout 2020, Miami has become the latest epicenter for tech and innovation. Tech startups, previously based in locations such as New York and Silicon Valley, have flocked in the hundreds to grow their businesses.
Miami has so much potential to become the city of the future. Definitely a trade hub, business hub, cultural hub, an international city that can grow immensely.
