What fascinating timing. I'm a software engineer who has lived in San Francisco for 15 years, most of that time working at different tech-heavy startups, and starting my own twice. I've been in Europe for the past week, flying tomorrow to Sofia, BG for five days. If anyone in Sofia is reading this and would like to meet for coffee, etc., contact me at amax at redsymbol dot net.
I am not an investor and don't fully understand how startup financing works even in SV, and certainly not anywhere in Europe. However, it seems to me that if you're an angel or VC, there is a remarkable opportunity in places like Bulgaria. Potentially a great deal of investment demand (i.e. entrepreneurial tech talent), compared to investment supply. Lots of new challenges, I'm sure, but competing with other investors apparently isn't one of them.
(Hmmm... if you're an SV [EDIT: American] angel/VC and are thinking the same, email me as well. In the event I meet some promising BG entrepreneurs in the next week, it's possible I might be able to make some meaningful introductions.)
