Eamonn Butler explains one of the impediments to new businesses in Germany:
By the way, I found out why Germany does not have many huge company successes. In Germany there is a law saying all offices have to have windows of a certain size - many big American companies, especially in Silicon Valley, were founded in garages.
My current office would apparently be illegal in Germany. The office is quite large, but I have no windows. In a few weeks I'll have two windows but half the space. I'd rather have the space.
