Independent consulting, research and technology services
Hong Kong. Working with clients in Europe and North America, and with independent experts across Asia.
What we do
Two practice areas under one company. Every service page states what the work covers, what you receive and how the fee is calculated.
Strategy Consulting
Structured analysis of one business decision, delivered as a written recommendation you can put in front of a board.
Expert Network
Access to independent industry experts for research interviews and advisory assignments, arranged and moderated by us.
Market Research
Primary and desk research on a defined market, delivered as an analytical report with the method and the sources stated.
China Market Entry
Assessment and planning support for companies entering the Chinese market — demand, route to market, partners and the regulatory ground to cover.
Due Diligence
Independent verification of a counterparty, supplier or target, delivered as a written report with every finding sourced.
Software Development
Custom software built to a written specification, from first scope to a deployed and documented product.
Web & Mobile Applications
Customer-facing web and mobile products, from interface design through to release on the app stores.
Business Automation
Removing manual steps from the operations you already run — integrations, internal tools and reporting that maintains itself.
Digital Marketing
Planning and running digital marketing for the client — positioning, channel mix and the measurement that shows whether it worked.
Search & Content
Organic search and the content behind it — technical health, structure and a publishing plan that holds up over time.
Performance Advertising
Paid acquisition run on the client's behalf, in the client's own accounts, measured against an agreed cost per outcome.
Where we work
Sector coverage for the research practice — the markets our experts come from and the questions clients bring to us.
Manufacturing & Supply Chain
Sourcing, production and logistics across Greater China and Southeast Asia — what a supplier actually costs, and whether it can deliver.
Financial Services
Research and expert access for financial-sector clients — banking, payments, asset servicing and insurance across Greater China and Southeast Asia.
Technology & AI
Software, semiconductors, cloud infrastructure and applied AI across the region — what is deployed in production rather than what is announced.
Life Sciences
Pharmaceuticals, medical devices and healthcare delivery — approval pathways, procurement reality and how products actually reach patients.
Energy & EV
Batteries, electric vehicles, renewables and grid infrastructure — cost curves, capacity and who can actually deliver at volume.
Consumer & Retail
Brands, channels and consumer behaviour in Asian markets — what sells, through whom, and at what real margin after the channel takes its share.
Travel & Hospitality
Travel demand, hospitality operations and cross-border tourism — where the volume is going and what it costs to serve it.
A bridge between jurisdictions
Hong Kong sits between the market our clients come from and the market most of our research is about. Contracts run under a common-law system that European and North American counsel already understand; the expertise we reach is an hour away.
That position is the reason the company is registered here rather than anywhere else. It is also why our engagements are documented the way they are: a written scope, a named deliverable, an assignment reference that runs through every document from the contract to the final invoice.
