Notes de l'éditeur
- The Baltic nation, despite being one of the least populous places in the European Union, is churning out more startups per capita than any other country in the region, according to The Wall Street Journal. Skype Ltd. , the software company that made Internet phone calls popular and now is being acquired by Microsoft Corp. (Nasdaq: MSFT), laid the groundwork for this trend and tapped into a large pool of software and hardware engineering talent.
