India. We have a huge domestic market - so you're not just solving "outsourced" problems - one of the largest talent pools in the world, and a reasonable democracy.

India is not going to take the lead in manufacturing anytime soon, but if you look at mobile tech, retail tech, payments, robotics and solar ... there's super exciting stuff happening.

Plus it is a validated market - every month sees billions of dollars of VC investment in India.

It's not perfect - for example we are already at the stage where local, homegrown startups are competing against the valley behemoths ... and gave been found lacking. But the game is just getting heated up.
