For the last decade or so Europe has managed to kill its tech industry by coming up with regulations only corporations with deep pockets can afford to satisfy.
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.
