-Stanford was widely seen as the favorite in the competition and it was believed that Mayor Bloomberg sorely wanted the school to open a campus in the city to produce a Silicon Valley effect. But Stanford pulled out of the competition before a winner was announced. Accounts differ as to why; some say it was because Stanford could not tolerate arcane and unclear city rules, which NYC-based schools were used to, others say it was to avoid the embarrassment of being passed over in favor of other institutions.
+Stanford was widely seen as the favorite in the competition and it was believed that Mayor Bloomberg sorely wanted the school to open a campus in the city to repeat what it had achieved in Silicon Valley, spinning off tech startups that had transformed the region's economy. But Stanford pulled out of the competition before a winner was announced. Accounts differ as to why; some say it was because Stanford could not tolerate arcane and unclear city rules, which NYC-based schools were used to, others say it was to avoid the embarrassment of being passed over in favor of other institutions.
-Cornell and Technion's emerged as the official winner of the competition and was given the coveted Roosevelt Island plot on which to build its new campus. Cornell has already set up its new institution, Cornell NYC Tech, in space provided by Google in [[Chelsea]], while its campus is being built. However, other schools did not emerge as total losers in the competition. In [[2012]], the city agreed to provide funding for the proposals by Columbia and by the [[NYU]]-led consortium.
