Until recently, China was the workbench of the world, but today it is above all an attractive consumer market, with a growing influence on international markets. But beyond this, a particular strength for innovation has developed, which can have a decisive influence on the success of future economic efforts.
Since 2018, China has published more patents than any other country in the world. In 2019 China overtook the USA with the number of Unicorns. A close look at the New York Stock Exchange reveals that listed Chinese giants are overtaking the DAX companies so familiar to us. The pioneering role is changing hands.
What do the entrepreneurs from the Far East do better than their German colleagues? Together we decipher the success factors of Chinese hardware and software start-ups and systematize strategies for successful, future-oriented business models.
