Full disclosure: I just moved from the US to Stockholm.
Sounds more like the founders of a travel-related site got enamored with the travel lifestyle, culture, and all that goes with it in NYC. Much like a new CS grad thinks that the valley is the only possible place a startup can work, I imagine that the same holds for travel companies in NYC.
From what I've seen/learned so far (and a native Swede please correct me if I'm wrong) people here seem MUCH more likely to run a lifestyle type of business vs. one that chases VC funding.
- mbesto 15y agoWhoa! Fellow Chicagoian/hacker living in stockholm? Nice. I've got quite a few entrepreneurial friends in Stockholm in case you're looking for a network. Feel free to get in touch (email in profile)
- fellowshipofone 15y ago(I work for Tripl) What the article does not really say much is that Tripl keeping an office in Stockholm where we do have connections, but we have trouble finding fundings for a large engineering project, we have still not found a new office (co-working space) and we have huge difficulties hiring (mobile and web developers). I would love to be proven wrong and keep a larger presence in Stockholm, but NYC has proven easier on these three topics so far.
