very beneficial!! I would love to hear more about the "lots of programs that deserve consideration in europe". Could you create a list these under recognized programs for the benefit of the global community? I have been all over Europe (and love it) what it lacks in the tech community it makes up for with the nightlife.

Hey gamechangr, here is the list of the just the most famous: www.startupbootcamp.org www.seedcamp.org www.hackfwd.com www.springboard.com www.theopenfund.com There is a lot going on in the tech community at the moment in Europe, even though we do not tend to concentrate all that is happening in a few places. Just to name a few these are all european brewed products: soundcloud.com soup.io 46elks.com circleme.com newscurve.com blossom.io blog.weavly.com newsgrape.com pocketgui.de txtr.com spreadshirt.net I am sure you have lots in the states that we don't get to know of too. I think with all that has been going on historically we tend not to found companies but to do other stuff for fun :) S

  I think you are reading into my comments. I believe there are many great european products!! I would like to help get the word out that there are good startup incubators in europe. These are some great links. You lost me on the first couple (startupbootcamp is a two day conference) (seedcamp is a good company,but not a startup incubator) I had not heard of Hackfwd and springboard. Both look to be the real deal. I'm excited to see innovation in every city and nation. In America these are a couple of the good ones: http://techcocktail.com/top-15-us-startup-accelerators-ranked-2011-05#.T0hWpFFdDw4 http://techcocktail.com/top-15-us-startup-accelerators-ranke...

    Sorry gamechangr, I think I might have got some links wrong.. This was the program: http://www.seedcamp.com/ http://www.seedcamp.com/ :) it is the biggest one in europe at the moment of speaking even though I particularly like the hackfwd philosphy :). If you look at their videos you will get what I mean :) At Startupbootcamp istead they define themselves as a mentorship based program: http://www.startupbootcamp.org/details/ http://www.startupbootcamp.org/details/ S
