As a partner at YC, I can say that we are actively working on how YC can help founders in China. One difference I've noticed with Chinese startups is the relative speed at which they move. If you thought SV moved quick...it's nothing compared to Beijing! Re: what SV advice is transferable, we're still very much figuring this out. It's not 100% but I highly doubt it's as limited as I've heard some BJ investors and founders imply :)

Thanks - here is another one that I have discovered. I have no idea who these people are but they seem to bring good insight from China. https://kr-asia.com/

https://technode.com/ also useful sometimes

Another one - mostly shallow grapevine with SE Asia view https://thelowdown.momentum.asia/ - probably many such exist

I have no affiliation with any of above. Thanks to google - I keep hitting these more than others.

I'd be interested in reading a blog article that describes in what way Chinese startups move faster, I feel there is a lot to be learned here.

I think it is mostly that competition is insane. Not that competition is low in Silicon Valley, but you are still able to carve out some niche for yourself. In China not so much, or at least it is a lot harder. People will come in and do what you do, what your supplier does and get the same deals as you, on every level of your business.
