Foreign companies in China tend to fail more often than that they succeed. In my experience the main obstacles to success are arrogance and ignorance. Virtually every foreigner, including the author of this article and extremely successful companies such as eBay and Google, are guilty of both when starting a venture in China.
As CEO of BilltoBill, a payment services company helping airlines and other merchants selling online in China, I wish to relate some of my personal experiences in building a business in China from scratch. Read the rest of “Building a business in China” or post a comment
