Guess they realized the Microsoft and Google "Research" centers to build up german software- are nothing more then thinly veiled recruitment pools for competent software developers who then get shipped of to redmond or mountainview.

Still amazing that eastern-europe could build up vibrant software companies- and germany just cant. They get wirecard if they try. I really would love to read more about the cultural causes for this. France seems to suffer from the same problem. Italy too.
