Silicon Valley, Jun 5 (PTI) Talented people from across the world get attracted to Silicon Valley because it celebrates failure, an ecosystem that is found in no other parts of the world, an Indian American entrepreneur has said.

The world wants to be here in Silicon Valley. Right from the emerging economies to the Western economies, everybody wants a pie of Silicon Valley, Mateen Syed, advisor and investor to startups told PTI in an interview.

"It’s very simple. It’s not about geography. It’s not just about technology. A lot of people fail to understand this...Here as you must have heard this mantra many times, that failure is celebrated,” he said.
