About this Event
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 dive 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.

Why are we charging?
YCW is a volunteer-run initiative depending on the grace of the venues we work with to host our events. Recently, all our free events have had completely wild attrition rates ranging from 30% to nearly 80% no shows. This makes it extremely hard for us to both give venues the heads up as to how much space we need, and to know how many volunteers we need to staff them.
We DON'T want to earn money from you, and so the ticket will get you something commensurate in value. But we would like to nudge you to come if you sign up.
ARE YOU A STUDENT? Email us at [email protected] from your valid .edu email and we will give you a code for a free ticket.
