6 achievements we are proud of

We helped our client find a reliable Chinese contractor for the construction of a waste processing plant and successfully secured a contract worth over 10 million USD.

We signed a strategic partnership agreement with the Mayor of Shanghai and the administration of Lujiazui District, securing exclusive terms for launching projects in the city and surrounding economic clusters.

We organized and conducted dozens of business missions to major regions of China, ensuring direct interaction between our clients and regional government authorities as well as major private businesses.

We developed and executed large-scale PR campaigns for our clients’ brands. Thanks to strong ties with Chinese state media, we ensure high visibility and trust in the Chinese market.

We provided our clients with access to strategically important negotiations with China’s top leadership, provincial governors, city mayors, and key government agencies — opening new horizons for international cooperation.
