We all have our own cultures and different types of innovation can spring from each one of them.
- jason0597 6y agoI agree. I never understood the fetishisation of Silicon Valley... it's not the be-all and end-all for everything tech related.
- maest 6y agoIt's a very Silicon Valley-like thing to desire to be different.
- Darmody 6y agoCame here to say this. While I like Silicon Valley, it has its downsides as well. And not everything good for Americans is good for Europeans. I want to see our own "tech cities" across Europe, every one of them with their own culture, their own lifestyle, their own philosophy, etc. To be successful you don't have to imitate SV on everything.
