The Internet Hall of Fame also includes a site with information gathered from examining the three biggest Internet companies in 50 countries.  Data comes from online sources, stock market data, company information, and people working within startups.

Here are some of the most interesting facts covered by the Internet Hall of Fame:

   29 countries have at least one Internet company worth $1 billion

  The World Startup Report found that the average value of companies in the communication industry is close to $20 billion 

  Out of 150 companies studied, public companies are on average worth $25 billion, or six times more than private companies ($4 billion)

– Most search companies started just before 2000, and gaming companies in 2001, making them the world’s “most mature” Internet industries. 

   The B2B industry has the highest number of companies that were launched around 2006. For the World Startup Report, it is the “quickest way to get rich”

  The report also states that though Europe does not have a large enough market to compete with certain powerhouses such as the U.S. or China,

    its countries are large enough to enable company valuations of about $1 billion.
