READING:

Google's boss Larry Page has said Europe needs to be like Silicon Valley and support technology companies more. Many famous tech companies have their headquarters in Silicon Valley. Mr Page said technology companies could do business there easily. He told a British newspaper that it was easy to invest in science in Silicon Valley, and to start new technology companies. He said Europe needed to start investing in big ideas.

Mr Page said he had $62 billion to invest in new ideas. He wants to help societies in Europe. He is thinking about how the money can change the world. Other business leaders also say Europe is slow to invest in technology. Top teachers want European schools to teach technology more. Kids in Silicon Valley are better at tech. Many teachers think elementary schools should have coding classes for children.
