Posted in technology as most of the funded companies are into technology. The most shocking piece is arguably the number of funded company pear year with a clear peak in 2018 which is 50x (!) more than last year, 2023.

    I believe that’s precisely the point of the article, that there will be no new BYD which was funded 29 years ago.

        Founded in 2019, right after the peak according to the very graph I highlighted.

        Neither I nor the article is saying there are no more startups nor innovation from China. What the article is saying is that it’s radically less than 7 years ago. You can still list few amazing Chinese startup from 2023 or 2024 and it would still not make the article “nonsense”.
