Corporate survival is tough; recipe for success: good product, strategy, cash

Article Abstract:

Start-up enterprises in Hong Kong find the country's laissez-faire policy as a deterrent to business growth because it promotes the shortage of available capital. Hong Kong's broad base of clients, developed facilities and minimal government intervention make start-up businesses attracted to it. Also, the small number of start-ups and the domination of large companies offer intense competition for new businesses in Hong Kong.
