On: Why Silicon Valley Can’t Find Europe

> But maybe my experience living, working and studying in 3 different countries in the EU is worth nothing.

I'm not really impressed, given how wide strokes you painted. I just think it's more constructive to at least state the countries you're talking about rather than just the continent that they share.

"I just think it's more constructive to at least state the countries you're talking about rather than just the continent that they share."

If we're talking about startups, there's a limited set of places this can be about. I can assure you it's not the countryside of Spain.

I mentioned the common aspects I've noticed, because the discussion is about Europe and not a specific city or a comparison between them.

But I'm basing this on experiences in Ireland, France and Germany. Sure, they are not all exactly the same, but they end up having a lot in common.

Sorry, I was being lazy, presumably because I am from europe.
