BCG's Team

BCG's Directors are all experts at establishing and managing businesses in China. All worked for larger consulting or legal firms in China for many years before forming BCG, having identified a niche market for the provision of value-for-money, hands-on, practical consulting services to clients in China.

BCG's staff are all bilingual, have a long-term commitment to the market, and are based in China to build and maintain effective business networks, and stay close to the latest trends and developments in this fast-changing cultural and commercial environment.
