What it is: Freely editable google spreadsheet with information on where tech is happening in Scotland. Currently lists >300 companies and 90 groups/events. What it's not: - A startup/VC map. Challenges: - getting people to add/curate existing content (current theory: I think people browse mostly on phones, and can't edit without installing the Google Sheets app), as I can't put a lot of time into it. - better quality categorisation of companies - finding dev teams within organisations like local government - identifying what's missing (my gut feel is there's easily another 300-1k companies to add, but most existing entries have come through business directories or searches on twitter for "developers/python/java/etc near me"). How it began: The wikipedia article on Silicon Glen is short and out of date. I was finding out about companies geographically near me in similar industries that I just wasn't coming across unless they were hiring. I heard of Eden Shochat, who successfully crowdsourced the Israeli startup scene in a Google spreadsheet.
