Not sure if you're trolling or seriously underinformed. Firstly, since when is building compute clouds manufacturing? More to the point though, a large portion of manufacturing machinery is in fact build in Germany and the Netherlands (ASML is probably the most famous example, but others include Festo, Bosch ...), you'll find hardly an advanced production line which doesn't run on machines build in Europe. Interestingly most of the companies behind this are smaller size businesses, it seems like the European business sphere does not tend so much toward large corporates (although I could be wrong here, I have not seen any statistics).
