Why does everyone assume this needs to be a tech HQ? They already have that in Seattle. Perhaps this HQ2 is so Amazon can continue venturing into other sectors. They'll need marketers, designers, engineers, accountants, logistics managers, sales agents, buyers, etc. I think the more a city's economy is diversified the better than chances of landing this than being a "tech hub".
It's one reason a city like Columbus made the short list. They pull from 500,000 students in public universities in Ohio, not to mention multiple prestigious private universities, and all the universities 3 hours away in Pittsburgh, Indiana, and Kentucky.
