Classes in running or starting a business in Taiwan

Business Entrepreneurship
1

Hi, does anyone know of any institution which runs courses in starting or running a business in Taiwan, preferably with some English? Having been here for a few months, it is very clear that the business environment here is very different from every other country in which I have lived, plus of course the language barrier What I would like is an intro course which highlights the following:

  • Setting up a business
  • Common mistakes or pitfalls
  • Understanding basic accounting and tax requirements
  • Legal environment
  • Customs and other requirements
  • Anything else?

Would be great if a business institution did this as I would like to attend (and in doing so will also improve my Chinese for sure!)

Thanks

You could PM Loretta.
He runs a Tedx group on entrepuership in Taiwan. Could probably give you some information/point you to some.

Have you seen llary’s thread on setting up a rep office in Taiwan? Here it is: [url]Llary's (almost) Complete Guide to Rep. Office Registration

And Loretta has some stuff in the sticky above this thread.

What about your country’s chamber of commerce? Would be a good place to ask.
