HBR case # W12840-HCB-ENG
The document discusses conducting a PESTLE analysis to expand a business internationally into China. It analyzes the political, economic, social, technological, legal, and environmental factors in China. Politically, China has single-party leadership and can impose decisions without negotiation. Economically, China has high growth but challenges in beef production. Socially, China faces issues like an aging population but beef is accepted. Technologically, China invests in research but implementation issues remain. Legally, policies attract investment but weak enforcement is a risk. Environmentally, China has land and forests but also pollution issues. Overall, the analysis finds China a favorable potential market.
CHINE : Les objets connectés comme solution aux défis de l’environnement. #...wOrldconnected
Economie, croissance, population, nouvelles technologies, pollution, énergie… La Chine est au cœur des débats et s’apprête à embarquer dans l’aventure de la transition énergétique. Pourquoi est-ce qu’on devrait s’y intéresser de si près ? Parce que les opportunités pour nos startup spécialisées dans l’IoT et les objets connectés sont gigantesques !
Début 2015, le gouvernement chinois estimait que le marché de l’IoT en Chine atteindrait 80,3 milliards de dollars en 2015, pour doubler d’ici à 2020.
Ces investissements massifs servent également à accompagner la création de nouvelles filières entièrement consacrées au développement des nouvelles technologies pour faire de la Chine un laboratoire des objets connectés.
Pour mieux comprendre cette dynamique dans laquelle le pays s’est engagé, comprenons qu’ils ont créé des zones spécialement dédiées au développement des objets connectés, des sortes d’incubateurs de startup à (super)grande échelle. Leur objectif est simple : promouvoir les startup et former les acteurs de toute leur économie aux métiers des objets connectés.

This document provides a PESTLE analysis of China. It outlines that China has a population of over 1.3 billion people and its capital is Beijing. Politically, China is a single-party communist state led by the Communist Party of China. Economically, China has a GDP of $11.3 trillion and GDP growth of 9.5%, with exports of $1.58 trillion and imports of $1.32 trillion. Socially, China has a diverse population with major religions including Buddhism, Taoism, and Chinese folk religions. Environmentally, China relies heavily on coal which causes issues like acid rain and water shortages.
China has a population of over 1.3 billion people and a GDP of $11.3 trillion, making it the world's second largest economy. It has a single-party communist political system led by the Communist Party of China. China has experienced rapid economic growth with a GDP growth rate of 9.5% and has become a manufacturing powerhouse, but relies heavily on coal which contributes to environmental problems like acid rain and water shortages. Technological development is also increasing with China having the world's largest number of internet users and supercomputers.
This document discusses opportunities and challenges for building LCD fabrication (fab) facilities in emerging markets like Brazil, Russia, India, and China. It notes that while direct economic returns may be weak, some countries are still interested in display technology for strategic reasons. It also summarizes that undifferentiated large fabs will not be strongly profitable, but there may be opportunities for smaller niche fabs, leveraging local supply chains, customer relationships, or differentiated product mixes. The document outlines key strategic planning steps companies should take before deciding whether to build a fab in a new country.
The document discusses the capital goods sector in India, outlining its current state and opportunities for growth. It notes that while domestic demand for capital goods has grown robustly, domestic manufacturers have not been able to keep up, leading to increased imports. To achieve higher growth, collective efforts are needed from policymakers and industry focused on leveraging domestic demand, improving competitiveness, bridging technology gaps with global competitors, and expanding the global presence of Indian capital goods companies. A 10-point action agenda is proposed to enable these goals.

Enhancing Singapore’s SME strategy for broad-based growthParth Tewari
The document discusses strategies for enhancing Singapore's SME sector. It begins by highlighting the importance of focusing on helping local firms achieve over $100 million in annual revenue. It then reviews global SME trends, such as case studies from Chile and Austria. Three ideas are proposed to further strengthen Singapore's SME strategy: 1) Target promising international micro-markets beyond major cities, 2) Help SMEs move up the technology capability curve through industry collaboration, and 3) Provide support to competitive SMEs in a more systematic yet inclusive way by defining high-potential firms and tracking their progress. The presentation concludes by emphasizing that competitive SMEs disproportionately contribute to job growth and therefore deserve targeted assistance.
The document outlines a proposed marketing plan for BP in response to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill crisis. It analyzes BP's current challenges and stakeholders, and develops a strategy to improve BP's public image through a public relations campaign targeting subcontractors, collaboration with NGOs and key opinion leaders, and community outreach programs in Nigeria. The plan estimates a total cost of $5.9 billion but projects a high return on investment of 96% through increased share prices and revenues.
This document discusses China and India's progress in catching up technologically to global leaders. It analyzes several industries - software, space, automotive, and personal computers - and finds that while both countries have made substantial progress, they still lag global leaders in innovation and remain dependent on foreign technology, especially in core components. The document hypothesizes that further catching up is likely due to economic shifts to Asia, regional production networks, bargaining power to access foreign technology, investment in education, and policies supporting skills and research. It concludes that strategic vision and coherent sector policies have been important to progress, but long-term convergence depends on developing strong national innovation systems.
This document summarizes a session on discovering the Chinese market. It provides an overview of the startup landscape in China, with the largest numbers located in Beijing, Guangdong Province, Shanghai, and Zhejiang Province. It discusses the challenges and opportunities for foreign companies operating startups in China, such as competing with local players and tech giants. It also covers trends in China like sharing economy, live streaming video apps, and new retail stores. Finally, it discusses financing in China, noting increasing venture capital investment and major investors.

In early 2008, Paul Antle, president and chief executive officer (CEO) of Phase Separation
Solution
s (PS2), received a call from the State Environmental Protection Agency of China, expressing interest in PS2’s Thermal Phase Separation (TPS) technology. PS2 was a small, Saskatchewan-based environmental solutions company that had grown, under Antle’s entrepreneurial direction, to become a North American leader in the treatment of soil, sludge and debris impacted with various organic contaminants. The company specialized in the cleanup of two waste streams using its TPS technology. The first was the remediation of soil contaminated with persistent organic pollutants (POPs), such as pesticides and poly-chlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). The second was recovering usable oil from industrial sludge generated in various industries, such as the oil and gas industry.
Despite Antle’s initial concerns that the call had been a scam, he soon visited China to learn more about the market in China and to build relationships. The Chinese inquiries were sincere. By mid-2010, nearly one and a half years after Antle’s first visit, potential cooperative opportunities had emerged with two separate Chinese organizations: one in soil remediation, and the other in oil recovery from oil sludge. The two potential opportunities were attractive to PS2. The international geographic diversification would transform PS2 from a domestic player to an international player, and in so doing, would significantly improve its growth potential.
The PS2 management team was no stranger to international markets. The TPS technology had been successfully employed in 14 countries in the past 15 years. However, the modes of international involvement had been on a non-equity basis, in the forms of equipment exporting, licensing and service contracts. Although the cooperative opportunities in China would bring PS2 to a higher level of internationalization, the decision was not to be taken lightly. A series of questions needed to be answered. Should PS2 enter the Chinese market? Which of the two opportunities should it pursue? Would it be feasible to pursue both? Did PS2 possess the required resources and capabilities to pursue an equity-based entry? What ownership levels should PS2 assume for each option? How would PS2 staff its Chinese operation(s) if PS2 decided to pursue the opportunities in China?

RDEs are becoming major competitors due to lower labor costs and raw materials. 80% of the world's population lives in emerging markets like China, India, and Brazil. Hundreds of millions now form a middle class market. To compete globally, companies need strategies to meet needs in both low and high growth markets using new competitive models as power shifts east and RDEs rise.
The document discusses various aspects of conducting feasibility studies for sound industrial development projects in underdeveloped countries. It addresses (1) identifying potential investment opportunities through studying imports, local materials, available skills etc., (2) criteria for evaluating projects based on factors like employment generation, foreign exchange benefits, and commercial viability, and (3) key considerations in technical, economic, and market feasibility studies like availability of inputs, production technology, demand forecasting and market analysis.
This document discusses globalization and multinational enterprises. It covers key topics like:
- The definition of a multinational enterprise as one with foreign subsidiaries or affiliates. Transnational corporations have especially dispersed international ownership.
- Multinational business finance emphasizes multinationals but domestic firms also have international activities through imports/exports, foreign licensing, and exposure to global competition and risks.
- Global business success requires an open marketplace, strong strategic management, and access to capital. International trade can be explained by theories of comparative advantage based on country differences in resources and efficiencies.
- Market imperfections provide opportunities for multinationals to exploit economies of scale, expertise, product differentiation, and financial
Mahindra & Mahindra was considering acquiring Jiangling Tractor Company (JTC) in China to enter the Chinese market. A feasibility study found that JTC complemented M&M's product range and Chinese brand recognition could help entry. The acquisition would allow M&M to become a global player and leverage JTC's manufacturing facilities. However, restructuring JTC's overhead costs and improving processes like accounting would be needed. It was recommended that M&M focus on after-sales service, training employees, and establishing itself in China through the acquisition.

Any large business today has significant exposure to China as a manufacturing base, market for your products and/or technology development partner
China’s industrial landscape is being reshaped by environmental policy priorities and a central government that is stronger now than at any time in the last 200 years. These changes will force many production sites to close or relocate at great expense, and with associated supply chain disruptions.
Impacts will vary according to regional sensitivities and cross-checking is necessary to get reliable impact assessments.
Being a multinational manufacturer in or sourcing from China remains a solid business proposition, but critical business decisions may be required to sustain your advantage.
The first step is assessing site-specific vulnerability to China’s policy changes.
Mahindra & Mahindra is considering acquiring Jiangling Tractor Company in China to expand into the global farm equipment market. A feasibility study found strengths in complementary product portfolios and technical skills, but also weaknesses in JTC's restructuring needs, inefficiencies, and cultural barriers. A joint venture would give M&M access to the growing Chinese market and a local partner. It is recommended that M&M focus on after-sales service, restructuring JTC's costs and processes, improving skills mapping and training, and establishing itself in China before considering exports or new markets. A joint venture agreement and approvals would need to be finalized to acquire JTC's plant, inventory, and dealerships.
This document discusses small scale industries (SSI) in India. It defines SSI and outlines how the investment limit for SSI classification has increased over time from Rs. 5 lakhs to Rs. 3 crore. It discusses the role of SSI in economic development through job creation, production increase, exports growth, and regional development. The document also outlines the steps to start an SSI, including project selection, registration, clearances, financing, and implementation. Government policies over time including IPR 1948, 1956, and 1977 provided support and protection to the small sector.
The document discusses MSMEs (micro, small and medium enterprises) in India, including their importance, characteristics, barriers to growth, and strategies for growth. It notes that MSMEs employ over 60 million people and contribute significantly to India's GDP and exports. However, their share of industrial output, employment, and value of production has reduced since economic liberalization in the 1990s. The document outlines barriers to MSME growth such as access to financing and technology. It suggests strategies for organic growth like developing new products/markets/customers, and inorganic growth through mergers, acquisitions, and partnerships.

The document discusses MSMEs (micro, small and medium enterprises) in India, including their importance, characteristics, barriers to growth, and strategies for growth. It notes that MSMEs employ over 60 million people and contribute significantly to India's GDP and exports. However, their share of industrial output, employment, and value of production has reduced since economic liberalization in the 1990s. The document outlines barriers to MSME growth such as access to financing and technology. It suggests strategies for organic growth like developing new products/markets/customers, and inorganic growth through mergers, acquisitions, and partnerships.

1. Executive summary
In early 2008 CEOs PS2 received a call from the State Environmental Protection Agency of Chine, showing
interest in PS2’s TPS technology. Despite having a Competitive advantage through their innovating and
patented technology, their core market –the Canadian- had already attained its momentum and is now
slowing down very fast. Hopefully, by mid 2010 potential cooperative opportunities (JV) had emerged with
two separated Chinese Organizations: NIES and Nahai. Each investments will require $3M and will let PS2
access to:
- POPs potential growing market of $725M
- 180’000 tons of oil sludge
The main question actually faced by PS2’s top management is:
How can PS2 benefit of the Chinese opportunity in order to maintain growth for the company?
The recommendations resulting from the analysis are
• Adapt their local strategy and expand to China Enter the Chinese market now.
• Improve and expand their organizational structure; take advantage of their resources and capabilities
• Overcome potential cultural problems by associating with both local players, trough 50/50 Joint Ventures
• Use emerging market opportunity to improve technology and business model

Conclusion: High entries barriers protects players involved in it. However as the future growth of the market is highly limited (market will reach its limits in 2 years),
revenues are volatile and the industrial sludge depends too much on regulations evolution (slow process). It’s a tough industry to be in.
Recommendation: PS2 Should find a new market to expand its position and to fulfil its vision

7. Strategic choices faced by PS2
Considering that PS2’s choice is to enter now in the Chinese market, the company has to face 2 choices in term of strategic
entry:
JV with Nahai, a private company
Oil sludge Market
Location: Zhejiang province (huge potential)
Fixed facilities
Investment 3 mio
Excellent infrastructure
10’000 to 100’000 T potential
JV with NIES – State environmental Agency
Pop’s market
Location: Jiangsu province (huge potential)
Educated staff on site
50/50 JV
NIES as an agent for PS2’s TPS tech
Mobile unit built on site
Demonstration project for 3’000 T of soil
More project throughout China for the future
Investment of 3 mio
Allow early entrance
Remediation of POP- Contamined Soil Oil Recovery from Oil Sludge
Both option seems attractive, we need to look further for a good decision making

8. Strengths and weaknesses of strategic choices
Strengths :
- Association with an existing company with
excellent infrastructure and permits
- Solid trust between the two CEO (may help to
overcome the cultural differences)
- Favorable location
Weaknesses:
- more risky
Conclusion: Both options are great opportunities, that are quite secure thanks to the support, in both cases, of a local player. The
first one is slightly safer, but we believe that being given the strenghts of the second, both should be pursued.
We recommend that both options be pursued.
Strenghts:
- Government support
- Experienced staff available
- Free advertising campaign
- First mover advantage
- Huge potential market
- Less risky
- Provide solutions and consulting services
Weaknesses:
- Imitation risk, stolen technology

9. Recommendations
Both options are viable and very attractive. In addition, the Chinese government
encourages our type of industry. Therefore, we choose to pursue both because our
ressources and capabilities allow it.
The first option would be implemented in 2010. Moving fast allows us to beneficiate from
the first mover advantage and to foster a partnership with the chinese government.
The second option would then be pursued in 2011, in order to smooth the costs and keep
focus.
Since the chinese government encourages our type of industry,
We recommand that we create two joint ventures with our local partners (NIES and
Nahai), with a 50/50% equity partnership. Indeed, since the size of our staff and
organizational structure is still limited at this moment, so we shall use their support with
staffing and cultural differences. The 50/50 partnership allows us not to lose control, and
satisfy the chinese wish of keeping it also.
