Talented people are from all over the world. However, most of them either give up so early on their journey or settled with small tractions. The biggest reason is that they don’t really know their capabilities because they are not connected to the rest of the world, especially if you are from not developed countries.
Today, I heard the story (on ClubHouse) of Reface.ai from Ukraine, who raised an investment round from a16z virtually on zoom last year. (one of the top VCs in Silicon Valley) That is quite fascinating. It increased my mood so much positively. More companies grow from all over the world, and this path will be more accessible for everyone.
