Mannheim - Second Highest IT Density Within a Radius of 100 km after Silicon Valley

That’s what the University of Mannheim wrote in one of their announcements. Second highest information technology density after Silicon Valley? Sounds great, but I think it is less because Mannheim is so superior in the IT area but more the fact of the good location between Frankfurt, Wiesbaden, Darmstadt, Heidelberg, Ludwigshafen, Karlsruhe and of course SAP headquartered close to Mannheim. Despite that, it shows that the whole region has a lot of potential. Unfortunately, the Internet startup scene is underdeveloped and not very distinctive.
I could not find the original report that proves the statement above but if someone knows it, please send me the link.
