Morphology
The sense of a central place for technology activity is directly and predictably built from 'tech' (technology) + 'hub' (a focal point or centre). This is a straightforward noun-noun compounding pattern found across languages, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
Tech hub can also mean an online place and uses the same image of a digital hub, a 'center' where people, tools and events come together, so it now means 'an online community or platform that brings tech people and resources together'.
