Silicon Valley companies are based on 'know what.' They know the market, they know the technology and they know what products to make to earn money.

Coolie Valley companies have nothing called R&D. They do not generate any new ideas.
A typical Silicon Valley engineer is a specialist in a particular technology, like inkjet printing or virus detection. He spends all his life working in this technology area.

A typical Silicon Valley engineer's education and work experience all relate to a technology. When he changes jobs, he changes to another company working on the same technology.
A typical Coolie Valley engineer's work experience does not teach him any technology. He may be a mechanical engineer currently working for three months on�banking software, and then the next three months on�shoe retailing software.
Silicon Valley is all about the excitement of creating things out of nothing. Companies like HP actually started in the garages of their founders.
Coolie Valley does not know the meaning of creativity. Some�companies are started by people who quit other companies and take some of the parent firm's software development contracts with them.
Silicon Valley's entrepreneurs bet on people, ideas and inventions.
Coolie Valley's entrepreneurs bet on certainties. They start a firm after getting software development contracts.
Silicon Valley's firms are about technology management.
Coolie valley's firms are about man management.
so you decide for yourself whether Bangalore is a silicon or coolie valley
