The European market is not a single market like the US - that's a big disadvantage when you're growing a company. It's a quasi-single market (and only for about 20 years at that). You still have to take lots of different national regulations into account, as well as the language barriers and very different cultures from country to country. The US is still the largest, single, free market - and that's what attracts entrepreneurs (and VCs).
