Well if you're super high-tech, I don't see why you couldn't go to Israel. Israel is like the R&D department of major countries/companies in the world right now

Well if you're super high-tech, I don't see why you couldn't go to Israel. Israel is like the R&D department of major countries/companies in the world right now. As per your comment, you could launch your startup from absolutely anywhere these days. You could position your cloud in Texas for your big US base, register a US subsidiary, etc. Personally though, Russia seems like a great place to launch an internet security startup. The stigma of Russians being great hackers can already draw in a couple of decent-sized clients. If you're working on anything or would like to link up to build something, we should talk. I've always wanted to build a decentralized remote micro "beyond borders" company.
