EverGreen International (EI) and Budding Innovations (BI) are excited to share that they have entered into a partnership that brings together leading expertise in further developing a launchpad for Chinese Startups coming into Singapore and the SEA region.
Both firms strive to combine their expertise on business expansion and localization, and provide an incubation platform for Chinese Startups expanding from their home market, and/or setting up operations in Singapore. The platform aims to provide end-to-end support for these companies and teams, ranging from talent development, cultural onboarding, to product localization, business operations and compliance.
Singapore Evergreen International Management created a new platform to “discover and cultivate talents who bring innovative ideas and technologies to build start-ups into the Asia market”. Tsinghua X-lab@Singapore will be the platform where both firms will provide the support to the Startups. Tsinghua x-lab is the official incubator of Tsinghua University.
“Singapore is a perfect mix of eastern and western culture. The collaboration between EI and BI provides professional consulting services and most up-to-date global information to the innovators and entrepreneurs, which enables them to thrive in Singapore and the region at large. This is the core reason why Singapore has become and remain the top choice for multinational corporations’ headquarters.”, said Joanna Jiao, Founder and CEO of EI.
“EI and BI coming together provides the opportunity for rooting more expanding Chinese Startups into Singapore and the SEA region. We consistently see that Startups benefit from having expert localization partners in a new host country.” said Dr. Bert Grobben, CEO from Budding Innovations. “The world continues to become smaller, and for promising companies to be successful they need to expand beyond their initial markets. Even for companies operating in a huge Chinese market, there are numerous opportunities to tackle in other markets.”
Besides working to root businesses in Singapore, both parties aim to also create opportunities for Singaporean companies to explore expansion into China. Creating bi-lateral opportunities is beneficial for business, talent development and unlocking innovation potential. We aspire to bring meaningful new products and services to the market, and create a positive and lasting impact in Singapore, China and the region.
