“In addition to strategic data access, operational speed plays a key role. China has managed to mesh research, regulation, and market launch in a tightly timed ecosystem. While the focus in the USA is still on basic research, China scores with implementation competence. Deepseek is probably the most impressive example of this: In a very short time, the platform has deeply integrated itself into the Chinese health system.”
– Renata Thiébaut, Professor of Marketing at the Gisma University of Applied Science and expert in e-commerce, digital marketing and digitization, in “China’s Recipe for Success in Artificial Intelligence” – The success of Deepseek was no accident. Beijing relies on targeted data use and scaling. The advantages lie in the rapid implementation. This accelerates innovations.”, guest commentary in Handelsblatt, May 13, 2025, page 22, No. 91
