London’s Tech Investors Start Moving East To "Silicon Roundabout"
- iuguy 16y agoI really do find this stuff quite bizarre. I'm sure it goes on in Silicon valley, but seriously why is there some sort of hoo-hah about one investor going to Hoxton? To put it into perspective, Thames Silicon Valley (roughly following the M4 Corridor) has been around for decades. Innovation from places like Cambridge and Oxford for longer still. Comparisons between the UK startup scene and US startup scene like this just don't make any sense to me and cheapen both sides. Both operate under completely different environments with different legal and business frameworks and cultures.
