TecHalli name not enough to catch talent

I think, we can learn what happened to Silicon Valley during the pandemic. It became very expensive and congested. Same thing is happening with Bengaluru as well. Definitely, Bengaluru has a better startup ecosystem than other cities but at the same time, many startups will do well if they operate from other cities because talent is getting very expensive. So, naming the city (as TecHalli) may not be enough for attracting and retaining talent in this environment where a company can operate from anywhere. Also, many other cities like Hyderabad are giving tough competition to Bengaluru by attracting new investment.
