Astronomy:Paper Belt
From HandWiki
The Paper Belt is an informal analogic term referring to the four metropolitan areas where several important industries and political infrastructures converged during the post-war era: Boston (education), New York City (publishing, finance), Los Angeles (media, Hollywood) and Washington DC (politics, law).
It came into attention after Balaji S. Srinivasan's talk titled Silicon Valley’s ultimate exit.[1][2][3][4] In the context of the talk, the term was used as a contrast with the emerging influence-structure of Silicon Valley.
