America has currently slammed the doors shut on top talent from anywhere, even its allies.
I think the most interesting market and the best predictor for eventual dominance may be neither China nor the US, but the rest of the world. Chinese companies like Alibaba are investing heavily in the South-East Asian tech scene, and this market alone has twice the population of the US. However, to date the market has largely been the domain of homegrown players (Grab, Gojek, Tokopedia, Lazada, Shopee etc) that remain basically unknown in the region.
- Supermancho 6y agoTop companies in the US still hire developers from abroad. I've personally interviewed and onboarded from China and India in the last 3 years. I'm not sure "doors shut" is the right metaphor.
