Anna Lifang Dong, founder of Dong & Partners, said: 'We are a small law firm, but I believe being a multi-ethnic legal team is a key factor in our ability to meet our clients’ needs and help them solving their problems.' She added: 'Whatever the case may be, Italian and Chinese sometimes do not understand each other. This is where our role becomes crucial, not just for our specific legal expertise but for the mediation we play.' 

Association with leading brands

The firm was founded in 2010 - as the focus on Western businesses outsourcing production was reducing. Since the founding the of the practice, Ms Dong has seen more two-way traffic. Italians are quite likely to go into China for the consumer markets now. Meanwhile, Chinese and other Asian businesses are setting up in Italy to benefit from the 'Made in Italy' label which is associated with many top brands. Source: Spyghana
