I think Boston is often taken to be a very large geographic area. For example, PillPack (one of the flagship examples in this article) was actually founded -- and still headquartered I think -- in New Hampshire. But to put that in perspective, Manchester and Nashua New Hampshire (the two largest cities in the state) are both less than an hour drive from Boston.
To be fair PullPack does have a Boston presence as well but I feel I need to point it out because I don't think New Hampshire often gets enough credit. It has a disproportionately high tech population for a state its size.
I also don't think Boston gets enough credit. The shear amount of innovation and academia happening in Boston and Cambridge, MA is astounding.
