Dominance of the United States... "Over the past 50 years, the United States has created, from scratch, 241 companies with a market capitalization of more than $10 billion, while Europe has created only 14. The typical company in the top 10 publicly traded companies in the United States was founded in 1985, while in Europe it was founded in 1911. Venture capital investment in technology in Europe is one-fifth that of the United States. Europe has a larger population and similar levels of education to the United States, but only 4 of the top 50 technology companies are European."
