I wonder whether those views here are always a bit too software-biased. At least for germany, we do not have a competitive advantage in software (which I have to accept) but in other things. I can't fail to notice that quite a few important innovations for renewable energy have happened here (talking about both europe and germany now). The leaders for renewable energy production are (mostly) NOT sitting in silicon valley and as much as I love software it's not everything. From solar panels to wind turbines, those things do not come from a silicon valley startup.
I wonder how those "Innovation analysis" posts would look like if they would focus on everything but software.
