Having lived in Helsinki and gotten some taste of the start-up culture there, I still believe that Silicon Valley is far far ahead of Europe in terms of the start-up scene. What I noticed was that culture in the Silicon Valley is very organic and feeds itself. However in Europe, it is mostly driven by the government grants/University initiatives/Business schools. This is the prime reason why any serious entrepreneur should have at least some context of the silicon valley to get a holistic view of their business.
