wow. amazing. Isn't the SV called that way simply because this is where they used to manufacture silicon based chips AND because the US is one of the main silicon producers, and because it is a valley ? I mean you can create a drink today and call it "sien cola", that does not mean you are going to sell a 100 million bottles per day tomorrow as a result of your "awesome" marketing strategy. Why does everyone call their startup scene silicon something ? It's like Bollywood which is not going to compete with Hollywood just because it has the same name. Or these Chinese companies which brand their phone "Appel" or their car "Felali". They are not going to compete with Apple and Ferrari. I may be wrong, but I don't think this strategy works.
