Chicago

This old city has its own way to attract people and business. Asserting its difference as a less crowded and overwhelming city than NYC, yet with a great accent on culture and a growing entrepreneurship environment. The city has totally adopted the home office, and co-coworking spaces are really numerous in town.

Chicago is considered as a major HealthTech hub and as far as I experienced the people there, it is as city full of dreamers.
