YCW NY

The New York Chapter of YCW was founded in 2014 and now hosts monthly events with expert speakers, cultural excursions and social meet ups.

A month into 2025 and the most talked about apps in the United States are TikTok, RedNote and DeepSeek. Considering America’s aggressive anti-China tech actions, how did these companies enter the limelight? What are they saying or not saying about themselves? And is this surge of domestic interest a foreshadowing of global relations to come?

We dove into the matter with Ivy Yang, founder of global PR consulting company Wavelet Strategy. Ivy Yang is a strategic PR consulting expert for companies in the global marketplace, with experience in international comms and PR roles, including for Alibaba in New York. She is a FT Chinese columnist & the author of the “Calling the Shots” newsletter, which aims to bridge communications between China and the U.S.
