Sorry, you're barking up the wrong tree here. I ran a technology company and got out in time. Knowledge based companies are the most easily transportable (broadband you know).I'm not barking up any tree. My points do not depend on what you do or do not do. And, yes, of course knowledge based companies are transportable. If that bothers you, then get you a comfortable government job. Find a place where you feel comfortable and veg. The rest of us will meet the challenge. Some will succeed, others fail. That's life etc. That's also how an active, vibrant, growing economy works, by constantly renewing itself.
