Yeah, Denmark hasn't done much recently, but if you look at the history of inventions in IT made by Danes, you have a lot
of important stuff including:
- Google Maps
- Ruby On Rails
- Skype
- PHP
- C++
- Google V8 (The JS engine behind Chrome)
- C#
- Unity
- jaabe 8y agoOh absolutely, and couldn’t you add C# and Unity to that list or am I remembering wrong? A lot of those things leave Denmark though. We don’t have that many interesting tech houses that actually stick around. I think there is an important distinction between “made by Danes” and “made in Denmark” when we’re talking about companies.
- zubairq 8y agoThanks, I added them!! Yes, very good point. Most important things made in Denmark or by Danes eventually move out! I wrote about it here too: https://thenordicweb.com/startup-comic-silicon-valley-vs-denmark/ https://thenordicweb.com/startup-comic-silicon-valley-vs-den...
- goodpoint 8y agoI'll make sure to stay away from Denmark.
