1. Tokyo/Japan
Japan is
the world leader in Technology. If there is something new springs up in
electronics or automotive technology, then it is certainly originating
from Japan only.
Such is the speed and energy Japan has.
Japan has
the largest share in the world market in the fields of electronic, science and
technology. It spends the biggest budget for research in these fields. That
accounts for more than $130 billion USD. The researchers are around
677, 731. In Asia, Japan is the only country that has received more Nobel
prizes. This is just an indication of what Japan is capable of producing.
Japan is
the only country in the world that has the largest international conglomerates
like Sony, Canon, Panasonic, Fujitsu, Sharp, Hitachi, NEC, Epson and Toshiba.
Then in the other fields Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Toyota, Nintendo, Mitsubishi and
Subaru are the greatest companies known in the world as well.
Japan’s
innovation can also be found in the field of Chemicals, Robotics, Optics,
Metals and Semi conductors. The amazing quality of Japan can be understood from
the fact that Japan possesses more than half of the Industrial robots in the
world. It means almost 402,200 of the available 742,500 robots. Six of the
world’s largest automotive manufacturers are from Japan only and houses seven
of the world’s largest twenty semi conductor sales companies.
In rail
transport, Japan has the most advanced trains in the world. Shinkansen is
such an amazing technology to date. The fastest train in the world, Maglev
train, has a speed of 581 km per hours. This is unbeaten.
Japan also
rules the space. The Japan Aerospace and Exploration Agency, is the foundation
and reason for Japan’s space related research and development. It has excelled
in the development of rockets and its contribution to the space technology is
commendable.
Shiny
HRP-4C is moved by motors powered by batteries located in his body and face,
allowing movements characteristic for supermodels.
Akihabara
or Akihabara Electric Town. district of Tokyo. Large electronics trade centre.
Cell phone
- waterproof, 15 Mpx camera with face recognition option, fast internet,
built-in TV, dual sim.
Since
Japan is much dependent on imported fuel, nuclear energy has become Japan’s
priority. Presently, Japan is the third largest nuclear power in the
world. It has 55 nuclear reactors now. They provide Japan’s
35% of electricity.
The only
energy that Japan finds it difficult to produce is the wind energy. It is not
that Japan has no know-how but the unpredictable wind in Japan makes it
difficult for Japan to go deep into it. The typhoons play havoc at times. But
Japan is presently making all the efforts to find the right technology, which
can make new in roads in wind energy production as well, that can change the
face of Japan’s leading skills.
It is
amazing to know how Japan treats these technologies. In fact, Japan has recognized
that to maintain its economical strength it has to advance its technologies.
They do not see the technology as a commodity. They realize that it is a
strategic asset and they know that Japan’s strength lies in advancing research
and technology even in harder times.
Japanese
encourage technology at all levels. Another
factor that propelled Japan to the top of the world is that it has classified
the technology into two and has concentrated on both of them. They are
Commercial applications from the existing technology and New applications from
basic research. Japan, unlike any other nation, invests its resources in new
applications not worrying about the time and energy it deserves. This is the
basic strength of Japan that keeps it above all.
Further,
while every country in the world researches and finds technology that
contributes to its military fearing safety, Japan has completely devoted its
energy in technology that help its economy and not it’s military.
Then
again, Japan’s net technology transfers to Thailand, Indonesia, China and the
United Kingdom are amazing.
Technologically,
Japan is the technological head of the world.
2. Bangalore
Once known
for its lush farmlands, it's now home to some of the best international and
domestic technology companies, which are creating millions of jobs for young
Indian engineers from all across the country.
The coolest city, with
cool buildings and cool people. It has the biggest mall of Asia. IT most
high tech city and it has hundreds of it companies. It has many software
technology parks than any other city. It is the best city in the India.
Bangalore is the fastest growing city in the world. It is the silicon city of
India. & it is the garden city of India.
3. San Francisco
Silicon
Valley, in the southern San Francisco Bay Area, is home to hundreds of start-up
and global technology companies, with Google, Apple and Facebook among the most
prominent. It’s also the site of technology-focused institutions. The Computer
History Museum and NASA’s Ames Research Center are in Mountain View, while the
Tech Museum is in San Jose.
4. Paris
Paris will get in 2016 the first incubator of
startups in the world, with more than 1000 startups incubator.
Currently only
in Paris we find more than 40 Incubators.
Sure it's far from he Silicon
Valley, but just to remind you that French people are the first foreigners
working in the valley with more than 40 000 French. It will be THE country of
High-Tech.
A vast program concerning startups is open. France is looking
for more than half million of jobs in IT and other high tech fields
5. Zurich
Top
quality thanks to top technology thanks to top research: The Greater Zurich
Area offers world-famous research institutions optimal conditions with a
successful transfer of technology and a multitude of available specialists.
Switzerland now ranks among the leading global suppliers of high-tech products.
Leading
research institutions from cutting-edge technology sectors such as
biotechnology, materials science, sensor technology, mechatronics, photonics
and optoelectronics are based in the Greater Zurich Area.
The
following factors make the Greater Zurich Area extremely attractive for
research and innovation:
•
"Swiss-made" label –
synonymous worldwide with the highest quality
•
High level of federal investment
in cutting-edge research
•
Outstanding quality of
living in the Greater Zurich Area creates ideal climate for
researchers and specialists
6. Berlin
A hundred
years ago, Berlin was the Silicon Valley of its time.
It was
known as Elektropolis because of the profusion of electrical gadgets being
invented and developed by Siemens and AEG, which were both rooted in the city.
The
electric tram and electric lifts were two inventions, which originated there.
So were
the electric lights spelling out the names of products above Potsdamer Platz.
It meant
that Berlin thought of itself as ultra-modern, on the front edge of progress.
People in
Berlin's hi-tech industry say the same feeling exists again today.
7. Madrid
Telefonica isn't hi-tech company but a
infrastructure monopoly in country of Europe's most expensive internet. In some
parts of Madrid's metro (for example Metrosur) there's neither Internet nor
mobile coverage. HQ of companies like
Telefonica and with the high-tech industrial town of Tres Cantos as a satellite
town
8. Toronto
They have drones like spy drones and they all
fly, cool place they have high tech hover boards. Awesome place because I will
live there.... The only city I included the picture... lol
9. New
York
NYC infrastructure is from the 70s that includes
roads and subways, now the companies there are high tech and the country NYC is
in is high tech, Internet is in every
building here (almost) NYC has technology all over the place Most high tech city
10. Stuttgart
BMW is located in Munich and VW in
Wolfsburg. Stuttgart is HQ of Mercedes and Porsche which makes it an
outstanding city for an automobile freak like me to visit, if not for any
reason because of Mercedes.
