In 2003, I completed my MBA with my area of specialisation being market entry strategies for China. My company was so impressed by the dissertation that they asked me to relocate to China to implement my recommendations and set up and manage an new operation. Initially the operation targeted the Chinese market but with a longer-term aim of tackling aggressively the wider Asia Pacific region. Based on my recommendations in 2005, a decision was taken to set up Technical Centre to provide design and applications support, a sales office and a warehouse/logistics facility to supply products made in the UK to the local market. This new operation grew from almost zero to 2m GBP inside 18 months and based on this success was followed 2.5 years later by a wholly owned foreign entity being set up to manufacture products for the APAC region based in Wuxi, China.
