Who Needs Silicon Valley?

摘要

Not long ago tech cognoscenti assumed they had to move to northern California, the source of real money and talent. Bostjan Spetic wasn't buying that line. The year was 2007, and Spetic, a philosophy graduate from Slovenia, had just launched Zemanta, which makes software that suggests relevant content that blog-gers can embed in their online posts. Spetic didn't want to move to the Bay Area, but he knew he couldn't stay in Slovenia, either. "It's not exactly where all the action is," he quips. So the mustachioed techie applied to Seedcamp, a new so-called venture accelerator based in London.
