This seems to be changing, so hopefully that works out.
- Funding for startup in Europe is spare. There is nothing similar to the USA's VC culture here.
- Market is naturally more fragmented due to language barrier.
- Talent pool is spreader over multiple countries. We do not have any equivalent to the valley here.
- There was (up to now) 0 protectionism that would give a competitive advantage on EU soil to a EU company in front of an American giant.
Trump having made this obvious without having locked all resources down and gone full Stalin yet in the process is doing the world a favour.
