Birmingham has always been an economic hub. Though known for its steel production in decades past, the city continues to reinvent itself in unique ways. One of those ways has been its magnetism for startup companies and the founders who get them off the ground. New data shows Birmingham is on the map with the most founders per capita with the likes of Dallas, Boston and California's Silicon Valley.
