BCG - The Boston Consulting Group

BCG's Hong Kong office formally opened in 1990 and represented BCG's first foray into Asia outside of Japan. Early clients included a prominent Hong Kong trading firm, a major PRC-based company, the Hong Kong government, and many multinationals. The office focuses on a wide variety of industries including financial services, consumer goods, technology, telecommunications, e-commerce, and industrial goods.

Our office overlooks the historic Jockey Club Race Course and offers a stunning view of Victoria Harbor. Hong Kong is an energetic city of seven million people, but it is also very compact, so everything is within easy reach.

Known as the “City of Life,” Hong Kong bustles 24 hours a day and is one of those rare places where East seamlessly meets West. The city is a strategic gateway into China and will continue to be an important location for BCG as we seek to serve our client companies and help formulate and drive their Greater China plans and strategies.

In the early days of BCG Hong Kong, much of our work focused on developing entry strategies for multinationals moving to enter China and on assessing joint venture opportunities for local companies. That picture has changed dramatically as our clients' businesses have evolved. Current client work offers a much broader, more exciting mix of challenges, including corporate development, general business strategy, IT strategy, and organizational and operational change.

The office staff, by 2008 more than 60 strong, are based in Hong Kong; and most speak a mix of Cantonese, Mandarin, and English. While the majority come from the Greater China region, this group also includes consultants from Europe and North America.
