EP 51: Does Population Size Matter for Startup Ecosystems?

from Startup Ecosystem Podcast

Comparing a giant like China, with more than a billion people, to Estonia, with just over a million, shows why raw startup numbers only tell part of the story. In this episode, host Andrej Vaklinski and StartupBlink CEO Eli David Rokah explore the Absolute Power of Startup Ecosystems Report. Unlike the Global Startup Ecosystem Index, this ranking does not adjust results by population, revealing new insights into the scale of ecosystems and the difference between large and small nations. Download the Absolute Power of Startup Ecosystem Report StartupBlink is an innovation economy research center, working with more than 100 government entities, multilateral organizations and corporations. Its global startup ecosystem map has hundreds of thousands of registered startups, coworking spaces, and accelerators, creating a robust sample of innovation globally. Find out more here!
