I'm skeptical about this. The city I live in has declared itself as the 'IT City of the North' a few years ago, but still most IT jobs are in the West of the country. You don't become a Silicon Valley by declaring yourself one. It's a political pipe dream. This new city in Portugal leaves the same taste in my mouth: lots of fashionable marketese (what does 'being green' and 'carbon neutral' has to do with being succesful in IT?) hot air and vapourous ideas. Let's see where it is in a few years from now.
