Applying to Chinese competitions is hard. We make it easy.
Every official competition in China requires detailed Chinese application materials including industry background, regional landing plans, and team qualifications. You only submit your original English project materials — we handle professional Chinese translation and application formatting, helping you avoid repeatedly filling out fragmented registration platforms across different regions.
We do not charge any upfront deposit, service retainer, or hidden channel fees. We only charge the agreed application support service fee when your project successfully wins an official competition award — capped at 50% of the prize money. If your project does not win, all consulting services we provide are completely free. ⚠️ Disclaimer: We cannot guarantee competition results. Final evaluation and award decisions rest solely with each competition's official organizing committee. All final application submissions must be completed independently by the participating team.
Every competition application is an opportunity for official brand exposure. Qualified projects will be recommended to local investment promotion agencies, industrial incubators, and VC institutions in the competition's host region. Even without winning an award, outstanding projects may receive cross-regional industrial cooperation opportunities — building your China market brand presence and business expansion at minimal cost.
We intelligently filter suitable innovation competitions, high-level talent subsidy programs, and industrial incubation support policies based on your project's industry sector, development stage, core technology, and target landing regions. We also compile competition eligibility requirements and policy benefit details — helping you avoid ineffective applications and save time.
Your dedicated consultant assists you throughout pre-application organizer liaison: including eligibility verification, supplementary material guidance, schedule change alerts, real-time review result updates, and delivery of all official feedback. You can focus entirely on product iteration and business operations.
If you plan to register a company and operate in China after competing, we provide full-process consulting: business registration, high-level talent settlement applications, industrial park site incentives, and local financial subsidy applications. A detailed transparent quote is provided before formal engagement — no hidden fees throughout the entire process.

Q: Is there really no upfront cost?
A: Yes. We do not charge any upfront deposit, service retainer, or hidden fees. We only charge the agreed application support service fee when your project successfully wins a competition award — capped at 50% of the prize money. No award means the entire service is free. We do not guarantee competition results; final evaluation authority rests solely with each official organizer.

Q: What materials do I need to prepare?
A: You only need to fill out our unified English application form and prepare your pitch deck (PPT/PDF format), founding team profile, and basic project operational information. Our unified form already covers all standard materials required by the vast majority of competition organizers in China. Do not upload trade secrets or unpublished core technology documents — all risks from unauthorized uploads are borne by you. You must also guarantee that all submitted original materials are authentic and valid. We only provide translation and formatting compliance optimization — we do not exaggerate or fabricate project content.

A: Yes. We provide full-process consulting for business registration, high-level talent policy applications, industrial park site incentives, and local financial subsidy applications. A detailed pricing quote is provided before formal engagement — no hidden charges whatsoever.
Q: Who handles communication with competition organizers?
A: Your dedicated consultant handles all pre-application official liaison — including eligibility inquiries, supplementary material guidance, schedule adjustments, and result notifications.
