I have not seen any statistics on this, so I don't know if the premise of the question is true. But if it is, perhaps one answer is Indian immigrants tend to know English and can assimilate and integrate much more easily. A second answer is that the Indian immigrants of today's era are mostly engineers/technologists who have high technical expertise levels and can more easily start or work at tech related startups. This also gives them high work mobility, which perhaps enables them to better take the risks necessary for entrepreneurial behavior. It is certainly true that in the past, the Chinese immigrants who came over, came to perform hard labor on the railroads, so they may have come with a different set of skills than recent immigrants to Silicon Valley. I don't know if this is true, but it may also be true that recent Chinese immigrants to the US start companies focused on the Chinese market instead of the global or American markets and thus, it looks to Americans like they are not entrepreneurial. Besides being huge and growing fast, the Chinese market may also be most attractive to the Chinese immigrant due to familiarity.
我没有看到关于这个问题的统计数据，所以我不知道这个问题的前提是否正确。但如果答案是肯定的，或许其中一个答案就是印度移民更擅长英语，更容易融入美国社会。第二个答案是，当今时代的印度移民大多是工程师或技术专家，他们拥有很高的技术专业水平，更容易在与科技相关的初创公司工作。这也给了他们很高的工作流动性，这可能使他们能够更好地承担创业行为所必需的风险。过去，中国移民到这里来是为了在铁路上做苦工，所以他们的技能可能和最近来硅谷的移民不一样。我不知道这是不是真的，但最近到美国的中国移民创办的公司关注的是中国市场，而不是全球或美国市场，因此，在美国人看来，他们并不是企业家。中国市场除了规模庞大、发展迅速之外，由于熟悉程度高，对中国移民来说，可能也是最具吸引力的市场。

My first guess is that Indians are much more connected to the English languages and cultures that they've learnt and inherent from the days of the Raj. So this could be a distinct advantage.
我的第一个猜想是，印度人与英语和文化的联系更多一些，这些语言和文化是他们从殖民统治时期学到的，也是与生俱来的。这是一个明显的优势。
Perhaps also there's a reverse drain of Chinese entrepreneurs able to utilize the competitive capital markets of Hong Kong, Singapore, and Shanghai. As India is way behind in offering a similar quality structure of investors and stock market, America is very fortunate to be their destination of choice.
或许还有一股反向流动的中国企业家，他们能够利用香港、新加坡和上海等竞争激烈的资本市场。由于印度在提供类似的投资者和股票市场质量结构方面远远落后，美国非常幸运地成为他们的选择目的地。

It's a very good question . Let me give you the exact reasons for this. No matter what anyone says but the truth is that Indians and Chinese are equally hardworking and that is why they get the attraction of US employers. Now there are 3 major reasons for less Chinese entrepreneurs or CEOs than Indians:
这是个很好的问题。让我给你一个确切的理由。不管别人怎么说，但事实是，印度人和中国人一样勤奋，这就是他们受到美国雇主青睐的原因。中国企业家或首席执行官比印度人少的主要原因有三:
1.The language issue: Indians are better in English speaking than Chinese. This may look like a small issue but believe me it is very important for US companies or management. Therefore, you will see a lot of Indians hanging around with Americans but less Chinese. At Top management level, interpersonal skills are more important than technical.
1、语言问题:印度人的英语水平比中国人好。这看起来可能是个小问题，但相信我，这对美国公司或管理层非常重要。因此，你会看到很多印度人和美国人在一起，但很少有中国人。在最高管理层，人际交往能力比技术更重要。
2.Employer vs Employee mindset: Now this might hurt some sentiments but the fact is WORLD SEE CHINESE AS VERY GOOD EMPLOYEES BUT NOT GOOD EMPLOYERS. This is a major reason that they choose Indians over Chinese.
2、雇主vs雇员心态:这可能会伤害一些人的感情，但事实是，世界认为中国人是非常好的雇员，但不是好的雇主。这是他们选择印度人而不是中国人的主要原因。
3.The Country call: A lot of Successful Chinese go back to their own country and become entrepreneurs there while Indians choose to stay back. Now a lot of Indians are also coming back here from Silicon valley but the proportion is very high with Chinese.
3、国家呼吁:许多成功的中国人回到自己的国家，成为企业家，而印度人选择留在那里。现在很多印度人也从硅谷回来，但中国人的比例很高。

Because Chinese American parents are very risk adverse. They would rather secure their kids a place in some form of glorified mediocrity (called employment). They equate risk-taking with gamble. (Funny, because Asians do have a gambling problem.)
因为华裔美国父母是非常危险的。他们宁愿让自己的孩子在某种形式的光荣平庸中获得一席之地(称为就业)。他们把冒险与赌博等同起来。(有意思，因为亚洲人确实有赌博的问题。)
Being overly "practical" they are also neglecting their spiritual (not necessarily religious) growth.
过于“实用”的他们也忽视了他们的精神(不一定是宗教)成长。
As you can see, it is a matter of mindset. Anyone with sufficient awareness is capable of changing for the better. No stereotype is inescapable.
正如你所看到的，这是一个心态问题。任何一个有足够意识的人都能变得更好。完全没有刻板印象是不可避免的。

I am not sure if English language skills alone is a good enough trait to be prone to entrepreneurship.
我不确定英语技能本身是否足以成为企业家的良好品质。
Being an entrepreneur is more of a calculated risk-taking attitude with "get it done" mentality rather than any of the other reasons, IMHO.
作为一名企业家，更多的是一种有计划的冒险态度和“完成”的心态，而不是其他任何原因。
The Indian and Chinese cultural background plays only a minor part because, once you are in the the valley and see startups/entrepreneurs no better than yourself, bringing their ideas to fruition as startup(s), the bug just would hit anybody.
印度和中国的文化背景只起了很小的作用，因为一旦你进入硅谷，看到创业公司/创业者并不比你自己更好，把他们的想法变成创业公司，这个问题就会影响到任何人。
