Our Sino-Global Presence

​

​

We believe “boots-on-the-ground” are critical to successful Chinese market entry and growth.

​

Internationally, we proactively originate best-in-class growth technologies from global technology hubs. Our headquarters are in London, with partnerships in Europe and the USA.

Our Team

​

​

We are Chinese and international; bilingual and bicultural. A team of deeply experienced Sinophiles, venture capitalists, technologists, entrepreneurs, cross-disciplinary professionals and coal-face executioners.

​

We navigate the complexities that Chinese corporates, investors and governments have in satisfying their demand for these technologies – and overcome the difficulties that international TechCos always face in attempting China market entry.
