==Benchmarking Institutions (Non-Houston)==
Institutions outside of the Houston area of significant reputation and success were also analyzed as comparative benchmarks for Houston's progress. While Houston's institutions cannot be expected to perform at the exact same standards as these pinnacles of the industry, TechStars, NVC, and YCombinator represent the potential for Houston's institutions and as a target for growth.
