At the employer end, if we offer enough FDI Western European governments do try to match support and subsidies that we could get in CEE.

Additionally, when investing in USD and used to American prices, it's a rounding error.

The drive to the CEE was partially government driven, but is now entirely due to the domestic ecosystem - you aren't going to find talent with the right attitude (business minded and independent) in Western Europe anymore.
