Columbus is also home to The Ohio State University, one of the largest public universities in the country, as well as L Brands, a big player in the retail industry. 

The reality is that the more connected the players are, the more money they make and the less you know.

CA startups are like a young NBA team composed of players fresh out of college.East coast pharm giants are like an old NBA teams with players in their 50s, where young players are sitting on bench.Who will win?
