> There's a reason why we have never seen a world leading tech company come out from anywhere except the US.
A few examples:
Nokia (the sleeping giant will awaken again :))
Nordic Semiconductor
The Qt Company
Unity Technologies
I might be influenced by living in Scandinavia. :)

- busterarm 6y ago> Nokia (the sleeping giant will awaken again :)) There is a nice little scene of companies in Espoo filled with some incredibily talented technologists who all got their start at Nokia. Even if Nokia itself doesn't return, I expect at least one or two major technology developments out of there. I have my eye on ICEYE and have even thought of maybe working there.
- alfiedotwtf 6y agoWasn’t Opera, Nokia, and QT all within the same building too in Oslo? Maybe something’s in the water
- kmonsen 6y agoNot Nokia, but yes I used to work for opera and trolltech was just a floor above us. We did a lot of work for Nokia device so maybe that’s what you were thinking of. Nokia itself was a giant corporation with multiple buildings around Finland.
