I actually hadn't realised Spotify was Swedish! Deezer is French.

Pretty much every high-end car manufacturer.

ARM.

Did you know the modern three-point tractor hitch was invented by an Irishman? Modern motor cars come from Germany. The Web as I mentioned earlier comes from CERN which is a joint European project.

Ericsson, Siemens, Philips.

Airbus is also another joint European cooperative.

Raspberry Pi.

Arduino.

Betfair.

Jetbrains.

Interesting exercise!


Oh yeah and Linux
