Human resource management is a major factor for conducting successful business in Asia. The performance of your business can be improved by systematically addressing its complex local HR components. These include understanding local industry benchmarks, appropriate compensation packages, staff retention strategies, designing personnel management policies suitable to the region, putting these policies, processes and systems into action, as well as ensuring compliance with local labour laws. PanVenture’s full range of services will allow you to focus on managing your business while depending on us for managing your local staffing issues:
- Executive Search Services: PanVenture will give you access to local and international staff through our Executive Search services for middle management and executive level staff, interim management and on-site consultant solutions, and temporary labour support.

Types of Business Plan of Interest
Our affiliated funds which include Venture Capital, Strategic Investors and Angel Investors are currently keen to invest in the following types of business cases:
Biotech | Bioinformatics | Optronics | IC-Design | Nanotechnology | MEMS technology | E-Health | Software | Internet | Telecom | Media | Security
In certain cases, our investors from different regions have a different preference for specific types of business cases.
For example, many of the funds in Asia were formed by large chemical or technology companies and so there is added value in terms of access to Asian markets, technologies and distribution channels. In Taiwan, more than 200 funds totalling more than US$1.5 Billion are available for investment in cutting-edge technology businesses. PanVenture’s Asia-Pacific Office can assist American and European companies to raise funds (usually between $1 and $15 Million) and locate strategic partners in Taiwan, Hong Kong and China.
