Europe doesn't have a tech industry \ stacker news ~charts

And I would not even count Yandex and mail.ru as Europe nowadays.

I think there are several reasons:

There are differences in societies which might explain to some extent (higher taxation reduces incentives to found a start-up, cultures are less entrepreneur-friendly, etc.)
There are nevertheless many tech companies and there is a lot of talent in this field. However in my opinion they are often driven by engineers ("techies") and not business people. To illustrate this with an example, think about Nokia which used to be world market leader in mobile phones. It was a great product designed by talented engineers, but then came Steve Jobs with Apple introduced smart phones and brought customer experience to a completely new level and Nokia's fall began. A similar pattern might be seem in the car industry where German car industry ("German engineers") are being overtaken by Tesla and Chines e-car industry.
Lastly there are success stories of tech startups in Europe. However it seems that Europeans are happy to create a unicorn and exit (which is a huge achievement), but Americans aim even higher / Chinese do not sell their companies.

In 2024, you gotta add EVs and Chip Makers, etc.

This is interesting data to see, but you have to remember, the world can change suddenly. A lot of things will be moving out of asia and the usa in the future. Some of them will just go bankrupt, and some will land in the EU.

In Europe, the development of a technology industry has never been encouraged, they have constantly let innovation go to other countries.
