Does Miami have tech?

eMerge Americas Techweek at the Miami Beach Convention Center featured speakers and demonstrations from across all fields of technology.
eMerge Americas Techweek has as a mission: To put Miami on the virtual map as the eventual tech hub for the Americas. Showcasing  all the region has to offer, from big companies to startups, hospitals, universities and industry support services. According to their website, eMerge Americas Techweek is where entrepreneurs and tech tycoons alike meet for a week long celebration of all things tech. Our approach is to bring together the entire South Florida and Latin American tech community under a BIG TENT and then shine a global SPOTLIGHT on the ecosystem.

As big companies look around for sweet deals with municipalities, offering move-in packages that includes tax breaks and cash for relocation expenses, South Florida doesn't rank well in the favorites cities to live in the U.S. list. The traffic; lack of infrastructure and specialized work force; crime; real estate properties costs are some of the factors.  The Tech industry gives the impression that they are not about physical location, working remotely is one of the major trends affecting all industries with heavy clerical work load.  Working from home would be a great alternative for south Floridians, but considering that over 70% of the jobs are in the service industry, it makes you think about the day when a physical therapist could treat you from home using a robot in the office.  Meanwhile, the therapist and the patient will probably meet and greet in traffic down the street.
