Symbio leverages China outsourcing teams to help companies become global leaders.
Beijing, China and Rockville, MD, Oct 31, 2008 - The Symbio Group (www.symbio-group.com) today announced its sponsorship of the GoingEast.Asia, the first survey on the expansion of Western Web 2.0, online gaming, mobile and e-commerce companies to East Asia.
The unique online survey will reveal the most up-to-date information regarding the expansion status quo and the expansion plans of Western enterprises to East Asia in the interactive media field. The survey aims to examine the opportunities and challenges start-ups and established companies face and anticipate when "going Asia." The first key results will be presented on November 14th, during the China 2.0 Blogger Tour in Shanghai. The tour is sponsored by Edelman Digital and features Robert Scoble, Shel Israel, Sam Lawrence and other renown bloggers.
Participating in the survey allows companies to reflect upon their experiences and expectations on this topic. It also provides them with valuable insight into the expansion situation of Western interactive media enterprises. The survey results will be freely available to all participants.
“Companies, whether large or small, are increasingly looking to penetrate the Asia market,“ said Peter Wang, Symbio’s General Manager of Enterprise Applications. “In order to launch successfully, these leaders must understand the nuances and intricacies of doing business in Asia. The results from this survey should help service providers, such as Symbio, understand the market’s needs.”
Partaking companies are eligible for practical rewards related to business in East Asia that include free hosting packages, .Asia domains, market research reports, local search engine optimisation or PR packages. In addition to the Symbio Group, the survey is supported by the sponsors Web2Asia, Jimdo and SensorPro.
