I personally feel its easy for a startup to start in West rather than starting in East. There are some problems in Eastern countries like India, China due to which not many of the startups are able to get converted into a really big one. They are still like slaves. While the quantity of startups getting successful is really high in western countries.

Don't argue that its because of intelligence, perhaps I think they are even better in this.

Yes perhaps its leadership.



Ability to market in the the most affluent markets, more likely.

When I say 'market' I mean top down know-your-customers and investors and partners intimately. Leverage the local connections etc.

Yes perhaps its local.
