We are a business consultancy registered in Wenzhou, Zhejiang, working across mainland China. We advise international companies on entering the Chinese market and coordinate company setup, trademarks and ongoing compliance. We give commercial advice on their deals and contracts, reading contracts line by line for their commercial terms and implications, and set our advice out in a commercial advice letter. And we represent clients at trade fairs, exhibitions and negotiations, interpreting and negotiating on their brief. Who do you work with? International companies entering or already operating in China, and companies anywhere doing business with Chinese counterparts: founders deciding whether to set up an entity, businesses reviewing or negotiating a contract, and teams exhibiting or meeting partners at events in China. Are you a law firm or an accounting firm? No. We are business consultants, and our advice is commercial. What languages do you work in? English and Chinese. If you need another language, we can arrange an interpreter: tell us the language and the date, and we will confirm availability and send a quote. Can we work with you entirely from Europe or North America? Yes. Enquiries, proposals, advice letters and contract reviews all run remotely, over email, WhatsApp, WeCom or video.
