Introducing your business to Australia

Understanding and managing the unknown can be daunting, particularly when it comes to entering new markets. Chinese companies expanding into the Australian market face many unknowns including: different taxation and regulatory regimes, cultural barriers, and communications issues. Local professional services advisors can help identify and explain these unknowns before they become issues. We can also broker valuable relationships, help liaise with local stakeholders and assist in important negotiations.

Supporting your China strategy

The changing landscape of China's macro-economic environment is highlighting numerous opportunities for Australian companies. This is particularly true in the services sector where the rising disposable income of China's middle class is driving demand.

Given the highly developed capabilities, technologies and intellectual property in Australia's services sector, we believe Australian companies are well-placed to take advantage of this new market opportunity and we have a range of integrated services to support such an endeavor.

From scoping the opportunity to brokering relationships, we can support your business through every stage of its transaction in China, helping to manage risk and improve performance.
