China is rapidly catching up with India as the IT Outsourcing center of the world.

How we can help UK IT companies:

1. Relocate to Tainjin, China or have a presence in China to exploit the rapidly growing market. Tainjin is a designated economic zone and all companies both local and foreign are provided with incentives to be based there.

2. Enable UK Software companies to work with Chinese software engineers. We represent Eskalate, a rapidly growing software development company in UK.
