Entering China: Market Research and Investment Due Diligence
We understand the Chinese market and can deliver decision materials to investor standards. When overseas companies look at China, we are their eyes and hands.



Challenge
For an overseas company entering China, the first step is not building a team but making a judgment: is this market worth entering, in what form, and with whom? That takes a team that truly understands the Chinese market and can also produce decision materials to investor standards. Teams with both are rare.
Solution
Scope of work: Market research and due diligence for Japanese companies investing in China.
- Healthcare: For a Japanese company investing in an independent clinical laboratory in China, completed due diligence and market research and provided the basis for the investment decision.
- Elderly care: Completed market research on establishing a new elderly care facility in Shanghai and produced investment decision materials.
This capability is now offered through two bases:
- Tokyo base as the point of contact: Communication in Japanese, with output that matches Japanese companies' documentation standards and decision pace.
- Shanghai team for first-hand research: Local channels, site visits, and industry and competitor analysis, not a compilation of secondhand material.
- The same team from judgment to execution: Research reports, due diligence materials, and the follow-on system development and local operations are handled by the same team, so execution can start right after the decision.
Results
Research and due diligence materials for both healthcare and elderly care were delivered on schedule to investor standards and used directly in investment decisions. For overseas companies, we bring both experience analyzing China from an investor's perspective and first-hand research capability on the ground in China: eyes and hands they can call on directly when entering the Chinese market.
