China Desk – from Asia to Europe

Your Access to the european Markets

Germany, Austria and, in fact, all of Europe, attract increasingly more Chinese companies that want to establish themselves on the markets of these regions or want to use the European region as a base for their investment in the CEE countries.

What distinguishes us - for us important that we "understand".

The China Desk, founded in 2010 by Schindhelm, is an example of our international orientation. As a “one-stop shop” and in close collaboration with colleagues in the Shanghai and Taicang offices, we advise Chinese investors on their projects in Europe.

The experienced team of German and Austrian experts and native speakers of Chinese origin guarantees detailed knowledge of both markets and ensures the best possible coordination between both countries.

Our services go beyond purely legal support of investments. We assist our clients with translations and preparations for meetings and discussions. We translate and offer intercultural advice.
