About Claire

Want to expand into Asia but don't know where to start? Wrong local partner, cultural misunderstandings, inadequate strategy: mistakes when entering Asian markets are costly.

For 20 years, I have been supporting European companies in their business development in Asia and the Middle East – from strategic diagnosis to the first client signature on the ground.

What I do specifically:

→ Identify the right market entry (Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, China) based on your offering, resources, and timing
→ Build your go-to-market strategy adapted to local codes
→ Source and qualify distributor, agent, or investor partners
→ Prepare your teams for intercultural negotiations
→ Structure your B2B business development (prospecting, offering, local pricing)

I also work as a trainer in international strategy and intercultural management (universities and corporate).

Sectors: services, tech, luxury, cosmetics, hospitality, training
Markets covered: Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Indonesia, Dubai, Europe
Languages: French, English, Spanish
