actually I think in France, Germany, and the other top countries in europe are just a bit better in this regard, but they are still very very far from US. Still in Germany or France there is a market for online advertising that is something like five times bigger the one in Italy, so for sure starting an online business there is simpler. However there is clearly not this explosion of european startups, regardless the fact that the inhabitants and wealth of europe is comparable to the one of the US. So clearly europe have a problem with innovation and technological startups. > and latests news that come from there, about national debt and such, draw rather catastrophic image of their nearest future. This news is always the same as in the latest 50 years ;) Honestly I doubt that something bad will happen, at least in short time, as in Italy there is a solid net of small business, and a lot of money in the banks.
