  • To me, Mr Rieschel wishes for maximum flow of US first-in-class to China so they get 90% profits

    This review is for the Show: Venture Capital in China with Gary Rieschel, in which the host did an insightful job!

    Mr Rieschel says that the first-in-class, which are US and European inventors in majority of the cases, don’t get the dollars, they get about 10%; the best-in-class, which are the Chinese companies in most of the cases, get 90% of the dollars. In this startling revelation, we realize that what Mr Rieschel advocates are exactly what US policies need to prevent from happening.

Q: What does it actually mean to do strategy, to be the Deputy National Security Advisor for Strategy?
