Aside from the Language, What Are the Common Barriers in Starting A Business in China?


Apart from the most obvious language barriers, the laws and regulations that startups should follow, the financial support of startup companies and the localization construction in China are the common barriers in starting a business in China.

First, Not Clear to the Chinese Laws and Regulations for Startups and IP Protection.


If a startup wants to complete a lot of complicated documents and procedures in China, it is quite difficult and will take a long time. During this period, foreign startup companies may face huge losses in money and technology due to problems such as market technology plagiarism and lack of awareness of IPR protection. Thus, if you want to launch business in China, you must quickly find an institution that can help to solve the problems of China’s rule and law for startups as well as the intellectual property protection, to help your company set up business in China.

Second, the Lack of Funding.


Starting a business is an activity that will cost a lot of money. Without sufficient funding, a company may not be able to carry out even the most basic business. Enterprises do not know how to get funding for starting a business or financial support from the local government or private enterprises, it is difficult to carry out the most basic business activities.

Finally, There Is Less Way to Analysis Your Product/Tech in Chinese Market.


Product and market strategy often depends on intuition about the way users or clients will react or behave. However, foreign enterprises often have less pathways to have a detailed analysis of Chinese market of their product/tech which will became a competitive weakness. Finding an institution that can provide such service is the easiest way to solve the problem.

In China, there are many organizations that can help foreign enterprises solve the above problems. So far, the most comprehensive and reliable service provider is WTOIP, which provides all-sided services for enterprises to set up business in China. If you are interested in starting business in China, you can take a look at it.
