There are definitely lots of lessons and it at least help explain why it doesnt work other places.<p>For instance I tried that to explain Europes problems <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;000fff.org&#x2F;why-is-europe-failing-to-create-more-unicorns" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;000fff.org&#x2F;why-is-europe-failing-to-create-more-unico...</a> based on various lessons that IMO factors in.<p>IMO it all boils down to being able to create the right environment where it can happen in rather than to try and create it or even kickstart it.
