GUANGZHOU, Sept. 19 -- After exploring registering a company in Shenzhen and Zhuhai in 2013 and 2017, ChiMan Chan, a Hong Kong entrepreneur, finally made the plunge and launched a business on the Chinese mainland in 2017 when he came across the Tianhe District Service Center for Hong Kong and Macao Youth Entrepreneurship.

The service center, a non-profit organization which acts as an incubator for emerging enterprises, is located in the heart of Guangzhou's bustling CBD, Zhujiang New Town.

Since it was established in 2017, the center has embraced more than 2,200 young entrepreneurs from the two Special Administrative Regions, and 45 Hong Kong and Macao enterprises have settled down at the center.

Thanks to the assistance from the center, Chan is now the founder and chief executive officer of Deming ProDevelop, an engineering consultant agency with four offices scattered across the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

In Chan's view, the service center played an instrumental role in his company's current success. "Without the help of the service center, there is no way we could have thrived to such an extent on the Chinese mainland," Chan said.

Establishing a business is tough in itself, but for newcomers to the mainland, the application and registration process can especially present a massive initial hurdle, according to Chan. Luckily, the service center reduced some of that pressure for him.
