Krátky popis
A Financial Times Best Book of 2025 A Forbes Best Business Book of
2025 The US is the source of just about all the technologies that
define modern life: personal computers, operating systems,
smartphones, e-commerce, web browsers, email, search engines,
social networks, electric cars and the rest. And most of the tech
companies that created and monetized these technologies are also in
the US. In this book Mehran Gul, the winner of the Financial
Times/McKinsey Bracken Bower Prize, asks: is that changing? Less
than a decade ago, the sentiment towards Chinese tech companies
was often dismissive and complacent. Now the alarm bells are
ringing. But as the commentariat pontificates how the US–China tech
battle will play out, an equally interesting question to ask is:
are there more Chinas out there? Places no one is taking seriously
now that might turn out to be massively competitive sooner than we
think. Samsung, a South Korean conglomerate, competes with Apple to
be the world’s largest manufacturer of smartphones. Arm, founded in
the UK, develops chip designs that are used in more than 90 per
cent of all mobile devices. Spotify, based in Sweden, is the most
popular music streaming service in the world. That’s not all. The
world’s most important semiconductor company, TSMC, is in Taiwan.
The other most important company in the semiconductor industry,
ASML, is in the Netherlands. Some of the world’s best-known games
like Minecraft, Candy Crush and Angry Birds came from gaming
studios in the Nordics. Nearly all the major electric battery
manufacturers like CATL, LG, and SK On are in Asia. This is a story
about technology and the places where it finds its way into the
world. Silicon Valley has for half a century been unrivalled in
spinning out technologies and fast-growing, high-value,
billion-dollar-plus tech companies, the Apples, Facebooks, Googles
of the world, that made it the centre for the most rapid creation
of wealth in human history. Its secrets are spreading to more
places. The geography of innovation is shifting. The world has a
lot more high-value tech companies than ever before, growing a lot
faster than ever before, in a lot more places than ever before.
This is a book about these places.
