That's only the case if you NYC intends to follow in Silicon Valley's exact footsteps. IMO, it would be stupid to.
As you say, NYC's tech ecosystem isn't as big. But its finance ecosystem is bigger. Also media, and fashion. I'm pretty confident that NYC can map out it's own path, playing to the city's strengths. I don't think it needs to have the same tech ecosystem that SV has.
