If you think about it from the first principles and ignore the location, it’s a fact that a business can be launched anywhere. We are in a global economy and most software runs in the cloud. Companies like Stripe will let you bill from the cloud. So technically running a SaaS company from anywhere should be possible. That being said, any great company is a product of vision * team * execution * luck. SV and to a larger degree US provides the huge networking effects of talent, funding and a big market. That being said, it still warms my heart to see successful startups from other countries do well.
