China, with its 1.3B population and thriving startup ecosystem, is both an attractive and difficult market to enter. Foreign companies encounter challenges in setting up shop in China, largely due to language differences, the restrictions of Chinese internet, and fierce competition from local businesses and startups.

But while it is difficult for foreign companies to penetrate, China has produced some of the biggest and most valued startups globally. The huge market, coupled by government regulations supporting startups and investors, Chinese startups are gaining increasing interest from global investors.

Join Grace Yun Xia, senior director for Corporate Strategy and Investment of Tencent, as she talks about the technologies and business models used in China at Echelon Thailand 2017. Get insight on systems and processes and learn how to employ these into your business from China’s most valuable company.
