Who we are and what we are passionate about
The magic word “go China” provides startups with opportunities beyond count, including a whole new massive market audience, new partnerships, new manufacturers, new technologies and of course plenty of new experiences.
But entering the Chinese market is a tough one, too. And as if building a startup wouldn’t be already hard enough, the Chinese market can also hold some huge surprises and challenges in store. Different consumer mentality, semi-transparent regulation, subtle relationship with business partners… just to name a few.
This is where we come to help.
