My name is Richard. I am from the UK.

We are an online platform for international students to choose courses and apply to top Chinese universities and for Chinese universities to do international marketing and recruitment.

In 2019, there were about 490,000 foreign students studying in China. The government has a target of 500,000 foreign students by the end of 2020 and we expect that more and more foreign students will be studying in China in the future. This is for two main reasons: Chinese universities are rising up the world rankings very quickly and the Chinese economy is growing, creating more opportunities for talented international students. China is now the biggest destination for foreign students in Asia. While the number of students is increasing, the quality of education is also increasing and talented people are coming to China from all over the world to undertake their studies.

We are also very proud as a company to have been awarded the Phoenix Grant from the Chaoyang District in Beijing. This grant is to support overseas Chinese nationals who are returning to China and international entrepreneurs who want to start a business in China. It's really great to have such support. There is no doubt that China is looking to attract more international talent and we take great pride in helping to achieve this.
