It’s hard to to build a business no matter where in the world you do it; most businesses fail. So the entire premise for a healthy economy is that new companies consistently gets created. Over the last 10-15 years, a new type of company have emerged called Unicorns. These are companies on the private market that are valued at more than $1 billion and are primarily found in the tech industry. These are companies like Airbnb, Dropbox, Uber, Spotify and Square and data from some research WSJ and Down Junes VentureSource did, show that a surprisingly small number of them are European. Out of 108 Unicorns only 9 of them are from Europe. Why aren’t there more?

Всё очень древнее, качество web приложений - просто жуткое, даже по Российским меркам того времени. Как-то оно всё очень медленно там движется, народ предпочитает сидеть на старых и проверенных технологиях, тех. авантюризма (в хорошем смысле этого слова) ноль.
