It is every real estate agents' mantra: Location, location, location. You have certainly heard the phrase enough and may wonder what inspires agents to say the word three times. Choosing a location for a new business, especially in such a large country as China, is one of the most important decisions companies make during the planning phase of launching their China ventures. There are several components one needs to look at when investigating cities and districts within cities, such as looking at the legal and tax issues, infrastructure, property levels, hiring capabilities, industrial clusters, your own network of suppliers and customers and relocation policies, to name a few. In this webinar we will be looking at why choosing the right province, right city, right district is so important for the longevity and smooth operation of your China business. #registeredofficeaddress #china #location

China has more than its fair share of exciting market entrants, which means the culture here is ripe for business success. Yet we hear from many companies who have successfully set up their business but have become frustrated by their inability to grow. For one reason or another their progress has slowed, and they are looking for something to kick-start them towards expansion. In a surprising number of cases, it is the business owner / headquarter who is responsible for the stagnation of the company. The inspiration, single-mindedness, perseverance, and attention to detail that breathed life into the business in the first place can become the millstone that drags it down. In this webinar we will be looking at the top 10 traits which can lead to the arrested development of companies in China.

In our upcoming webinar Jürgen and Manfred will discuss how companies should approach the Chinese market to reach its full potential. They will further explain the importance of a suitable china-strategy and why a good (and trustful) communication between parent companies and their subsidiaries is essential for the execution of such a strategy. #bridgethecommunication #china #chinamastermind #chinacompany
