There's a lot of talk about the tinkering culture of Shenzen, but is it really related to innovation?
Has Shenzen become a startup hub? What large startups have come out of it?

- frisco 5y agoTencent, Bytedance, Huawei, DJI, SenseTime, ZTE? At least back in ~2015 when I visited, it was definitely a major startup hub.
- dzonga 5y agodon't know any but personally since it's not in the anglosphere you're bound to miss a lot of companies doing incredible stuff. just like it's easy to miss a bunch of small tech companies in the us doing incredible stuff whether for the right reasons or not.
- sudosysgen 5y agoShenzhen is home to a lot of startups. some of them become unicorns, many of them you'll never hear about unless you're ij that specific market because they're B2B or get rebadged in Western markets. But there's a tooon of startups in every domain there. Basically most of the ebike market for example will use a lot of components from Shenzhen startups, and so do most electronics and a lot of software and e-commerce.
