China Business Support Services (version française à venir)

China offers enormous opportunities for foreign companies. However, entering the Chinese market means entering a world where Chinese business etiquette, language and culture dominate.   Understanding the rules of the game is essential for a foreign company to succeed in this booming country. A knowledge of Chinese work ethics can serve as a bridge to build a trusting relationship with local business partners and to overcome misunderstandings based on differences in Western and Chinese business styles.

Dotsigma’s team of Canadian and Chinese specialists guides you through the challenging process of building and maintaining ties between Chinese and Canadian companies. Our services are designed to support you during your China strategy to overcome the language and cultural barriers, the organizational and bureaucratic challenges.
