sim - selective international management

we consider history and experience as high values in a company’s development. However, especially in an emerging, fast growing market such as the Chinese, we also continuously need to focus on the latest evolutions in local legislation and economic development. relying only on the history and past experiences bears great danger.

we keep the history in mind to monitor the actual development and build a bright future of your company.

Having lived and worked in China since 1993, as Financial Controller for Nestlé in Tianjin, General Manager of the Swiss Center in Shanghai, Partner of CH-ina Consulting Co. and General Manager of Steiger China, Philippe Zwahlen, founder and owner of sim, is able to put the broad knowledge base and experience of his entire team at your company’s best.

Totally integrated in the daily life of the Chinese market, the team not only clearly understands the specific requirements but also integrates different cultural backgrounds. Additionally, through numerous valuable talks with customers and friends from all over the world exchanging experiences, sim has created a base of expertise that is difficult to find elsewhere.

By building up a strong team based on competence and composed of both Chinese and foreign nationals, Philippe Zwahlen has reached with sim a level of professionalism that is certainly necessary for the rapidly moving Asian market. Already within the first years of operations, sim is proud to present not only a solid customer-book, but also a structure that completely satisfies international standards, without neglecting the local specifications.

Feedback from existing customers and the rapidly increasing number of new mandates confirm the approach taken by sim, and that’s where we will continue to focus.
