C4TALENT is about creating a business & startup friendly environment in cities to lessen the effects of brain drain, attracting and retaining talented young professionals. Offering funding, physical infrastructure like co working spaces and incubators, and the city itself as a testbed are all effective methods. However, there is no one-size-fits-all solution: each city needs to design its own unique combination of key aspects for a local startup ecosystem.
