➜ Israel: Start-up Nation

eshkosesh:

“Building businesses also requires people who are willing to be, say, the 50th employee in someone else’s firm. But in a nation of start-ups a lot of people want to be their own bosses. Talent risks being thinly spread. Mr Samid’s theory is that after their stint in the army many young Israelis have had enough of being told what to do. He reckons that three-quarters of the members of TechAviv, a network of entrepreneurs that he set up, are start-ups with fewer than ten employees.”

Great article from the Economist.
