Personal Biography Rebecca A. Fannin is a journalist, author of five books, and a public speaker. Her next book, The New Tech Titans of China (early 2026), probes innovation under pressure in the world's most ambitious economy, and sweeping changes in US-China rivalry. She continues to report this story through her writing at CNBC and Newsweek. Her prior book, Silicon Heartland, explores a 21st century transformation of the Rust Belt into a Tech Belt. A heart-lander herself who grew up in Lancaster, Ohio, she brings readers on an investigative tour of this comeback, putting hard miles on her Honda Element as she visits change-makers who are building the latest version of the American Dream. Her earlier research and writing led to three books that were published in multiple languages: Tech Titans of China (Hachette's Nicholas Brealey, original edition 2019), Startup Asia (Wiley 2011) and Silicon Dragon (McGraw-Hill 2008). She also wrote the Asian chapter for innovation in Emerging Markets (Palgrave Macmillan 2016). Additionally, she has written for Forbes and Harvard Business Review, among others, and contributed to several thought leadership reports. Inspired by the entrepreneurs she has met and interviewed in the U.S. and internationally, Rebecca became a media entrepreneur herself. In 2010, she formed media and events platform Silicon Dragon Ventures. Represented by Leading Authorities, Rebecca has spoken at major business, tech, and policy forums. She's been regularly quoted in leading media outlets, and provided expert testimony about China's Internet to a U.S. Congressional committee. Rebecca resides in New York City and San Francisco, and logs major miles in her grassroots search to uncover the next, new thing.
