The Delta Algorithm
Key findings from 327 CTOs:
1. Proximity now measured in idea transfer speed
2. Competing firms share neural network substrates
3. Urban boundaries dissolve into innovation gradients
This synaptic ecosystem demonstrates how Shanghai's financial intelligence merges with Suzhou's nanotech instincts and Hangzhou's algorithmic intuition - forming a distributed cognitive entity that dreams in patents and thinks in ecosystems rather than cities.
