This is interesting analysis. However I think the most important factors of success of a start-up are 1) what service to provide; 2) team to run the business. Friendly funding environment is a plus, but it is not a sine qua non for a young company.
- sachinag 17y agoI don't think anyone disagrees with that. The point of the analysis is to answer the question "if you're a team that has identified a promising market and looking to build a product, where should you be?"
- anamax 17y agoThat's a meaningless question because it ignores important factors that often swamp the generic data. For example, the product and market matters. If you're starting a fossil-fuels related company, you're probably better off in Wyoming than on Sand Hill Road.
