      But which market has higher potential. Seems to me that US is very saturated, both in terms of funding and market opportunity. Startups now are niche focused instead of technology driven.

      Isn’t your focus on “technology driven” an example of niche focus?

      Startups exist outside the technology space.

      No, niche means narrow and focused market

      Self driving car is very technology driven. It’s also quite hot in both U.S. and China.

    The market is good
    The cost of doing business is bad
    The hiring for tech is terrible

    Ultimately US as a whole still has most VC money being pumped in, but really it depends on the start up and the needs. For example there are a million and 1 fintech/biotech/cyber startups in the US and if you are trying to launch another, good luck I’d probably look at overseas financing and launch pad
