Good concept, but poor execution.
Indeed. Each company requires user input and manual validation. The selection bias is self evident.
I would definitely have ranked Boston MA, approximately between Roma and Salerno (Italy), on the startup hub list.

(Nothing against Roma and Salerno... just sayin')

Yeah, the data set is really, really incomplete -- it only includes 7 startups in the Bay Area, for example. Plus, the UI is such that even if the data set were more complete, it would be hard to get a true sense of the density of startups in certain areas.
