It would take some work to estimate x and y, but the right way to think about this question might be: If you could get the right x people to move to your country, you'd end up with y% of the world economy.

Google happened partly because the US had a bigger economy which translated into VC funds abounds.
VC money comes from LPs. They don't have to be in the same country.
Baidu happened in China because China is a big country.
