"I think the first mistake that people make is looking at the European tech scene as one large, monolithic block. It isn’t. Rather, it’s a collection of regions

"I think the first mistake that people make is looking at the European tech scene as one large, monolithic block. It isn’t. Rather, it’s a collection of regions and cities, each with their own strengths and weaknesses."
That's exactly the problem. If it were one large block, like Silicon Valley for the USA - there would be a much more vibrant tech community.
- imartin2k 9y agoI guess what you are pointing out (it being a problem) is the conventional view, while the author tries to frame it as a strength. In the end, it can be both, depending on the situation. Maybe akin to the centralized vs decentralized structure of web services?
- gamechangr 9y agoInteresting - What is the potential up side of smaller/separated markets?
