Replicating Silicon Valley 

Bangalore has often been compared to Silicon Valley. I thought the comparison was a bit optimistic, bordering almost on the ridiculous. Silicon Valley has been the fount of innovation for a while now. Bangalore doesn't have much to show in that department, though the prospects are pretty good. Business Standard shares some of my skepticism about Bangalore's silicon crown.

Well, I tried to post the story on here, but there's just too much relevant stuff to post on here and would make the post unwieldingly long. But, I would strongly recommend reading the piece if you have an interest in figuring out what it would take to replicate Silicon Valley's extraordinary success.
