The problem is that the US also have those and so Europe is still lacking.

It's a pretty big problem that none of the large tech companies wether social media, search, robotics and so on are built in Europe.

Facebook is cannibalizing all social media and Google is cannibalizing all search. Those markets are practically gone, there isn't much room for a second place and there's definitely no room for a third place. That VCs keep pumping money in such startups, well, that goes to show how irrational the ecosystem is.

VCs aren't pumping money in to neither Facebook or Google, not sure what you are talking about.

We probably speak different English languages, because that's not what I said.

Of course there are some, but very few.
