Forbes Magazine Names Palm Bay 11th Most Innovative City in America

June 10, 2010 – When it comes to innovative companies and people Palm Bay is voted among the best in the country for cities with the knowledge and capabilities to invent new technologies that create new jobs. Forbes Magazine put Palm Bay at number 11 in its top 20 list of innovative cities, outranking larger cities like Minneapolis, MN, Rochester, NY, Denver CO, and Tucson AZ. The ranking is based on the 100 largest metropolitan areas in the United States and used data from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office along with information from the National Venture Capital Association to determine the ratios of high-tech, science and “creative” jobs. The categories included the number of technical and science jobs, creative jobs, patents per capita and venture investment per capita. Palm Bay ranked 20th for tech science jobs, 13th for creative jobs, 14th patents per capita and 38th in venture investment per capita.
