40 Companies That Are Beating the West” contains thumbnail descriptions of firms RestOfWorld.org believes are winning the hearts and minds of users. The losers, according to the write up, are in Silicon Valley and Western Europe. I am not convinced that the companies profiled are winners, but some are. Of interest to me and my research team are the comments about a handful of companies; namely:

  • Binance, crypto which to me suggests a service designed to appeal to a certain slice of humanity
  • ByteDance, a China fave  and super conduit for shaped messages and vacuum pump for obtaining useful data
  • Telegram Messenger, a super app for interesting applications
  • Tencent, a China fave.

In my lectures to a law enforcement group last week, I mentioned several non-US outfits in the policeware and intelware sector. RestOfWorld.org did not include those in its round up.

The snapshots are interesting, but the ones I listed above are definite companies to monitor.
