You have the business idea and we have the experience and Asia competence to realize it.

Headhunting and finding the right Human Resources
We can either work with our established partners to find the right candidates for your business expansion model or employ a person on your behalf to do the business incubation for your company (delegate model).
Company Set Up and Registration
We can manage the whole registration process for you. We have longstanding connections to public authorities and are always up-to-date on changes in policies and requirements regarding the administrative processes.
Accounting Services
If you want to have your own set up, but don’t want to deploy your own admin and accounting team, our local team can take over this task for your organisation. They can then focus on sales and business development.
Shared Office & Infrastructure
Establishing the right infrastructure takes time and is costly. If you want to employ someone, but don’t have your own office facilities, your employees, as member of our group and system, can use our facilities. You can just rent a desk or office within our premises. Benefit from our infrastructure from reception, to meeting rooms and copy machines. Everything is in place, ready to use.
Invoicing & Fulfilment Services

Marketing Expertise
Local success depends on the understanding of local culture, relevant customs and requirements that influence customer behaviour.
We develop marketing strategies for you based on our experience and most recent customer behaviour trends that fit the demands of your local target group.
After Sales Service
Language barriers, time difference, distance to the market and lack of experienced local staff make it difficult to respond to the customers' needs after purchase. If the handling of after sales inquiries in Asia has been the major point preventing you from realizing your expansion plans so far, you can be relieved, because we can take care of risk management and after-sales service for you. We maintain regular personal contact with our partners' customers, and our technical service personnel will take care of trouble shooting, maintenance services and warranty as well as after-warranty issues. We also provide product and application training for our customers' operators and ensure a speedy ordering, delivery and installation of spare parts.
