WALK IN WITH AN IDEA – WALK OUT WITH A COMPANY!
DP Bureau and partners create the first one-stop location for all an entrepreneur’s needs
26 October 2006 [Singapore] - So you have a great idea for a new business but you are not sure what to do next?

The first of its kind in Singapore, DP Bureau and its partners have joined forces to create a single location where entrepreneurs can get their questions answered and their business needs met.

DP Bureau has brought together a panel of partners with a track record of serving SMEs to provide on-the-spot services to entrepreneurs wishing to start a business – from registering a company, getting financing and risk management advice, right through to printing of stationery and setting up of your business webpage.

DP Bureau provides SME consultancy and advisory services including incorporation and registration of new companies, applying for licenses, tendering for government projects and filing of annual returns.

According to Ms Ong Siew Kim, General Manager of DP Bureau Pte Ltd, registering a company is just the beginning of a successful entrepreneurial journey.

"A new company needs to put in place banking, merchant and insurance facilities as well as establishing its corporate identity through business cards, letterhead and a web presence."

"By bringing together a range of other service providers, DP Bureau can now meet the major needs of an entrepreneur in a single location."

“DP Bureau has been serving the SME Community for 5 years, and has helped over 60,000 businesses.”

"At the DP Bureau, an entrepreneur can walk into the DP Bureau with an idea for a business – and walk out with a registered company with all the additional elements required to commence business," Ms Ong said.

Ms Tan Siew Meng, Head of Commercial Banking of HSBC said the DP Bureau was an excellent way to reach out to entrepreneurs who need advice on banking and loan products.

"Helping our customers to grow and develop their business has always been a key focus for us at HSBC. We are delighted to be part of the DP Bureau’s latest initiative to help entrepreneurs to get their business up and running," Ms Tan Siew Meng said.

Mr Mark Tan – one of the first entrepreneurs to use the enhanced DP Bureau service to establish his company – said the DP Bureau staff made it easy to get his company up and running.

"I wanted to start a hostel company. The team at DP Bureau advised what the best corporate structure was for my proposed business as well as the licenses I required."

"Once the company was created I simply had to walk from booth to booth to set up my bank account, insurances, webpage and business cards. It made starting a business extremely easy and saved me an enormous amount of time."

"I also found the bundled packages offered to DP Bureau customers to be well catered to my needs as an entrepreneur and were of value for money," Mr Mark Tan said.
