About
OPOPA connects Chinese industrial and green-tech companies to Europe: market access, local support and commercial execution.

Works from the European side of OPOPA’s model: how industrial buyers evaluate suppliers, how commercial cycles actually unfold, and what Chinese companies need in order to be taken seriously on the ground.
Focuses on practical market-entry and commercial execution, connecting strategy to sales capability, local expertise and follow-through.

02 / Why we exist
Chinese industrial companies expanding into Europe often find that buyers move differently, sales cycles run longer, and local specialists matter. Commercial presence has to be credible on the ground.
OPOPA fills that gap: we connect you to the right local experts, coordinate execution, and keep commercial ownership with you.
OPOPA Partners is part of the ESSEC Ventures incubator.
03 / Our position
OPOPA is the EU–China commercial partner for Chinese industrial and green-tech companies, typically mid-sized organisations seeking a serious path into European markets.
The work sits between consulting and operations: market access, independent European specialists, sales representation on the ground, and practical support including after-sales partnerships, provided as a service without the need to build an in-house sales department.
We build and coordinate local commercial teams to identify customers, develop partnerships and generate sales opportunities across Europe.
We connect you with European partners for after-sales, maintenance, spare parts, warehousing and specialist support, and coordinate their execution.
You keep the customer relationship. We keep the local engine running under a clear mandate.
04 / Working with us
Engagements are built around clarity and commercial usefulness, not theatre.
01
A realistic view of the European market opportunity, constraints and commercial model.
02
Access to the European specialists and partners a specific expansion actually requires.
03
European representation where presence is missing, and coaching or buyer-facing messaging where the client’s own team carries the conversation.
04
Where needed, European sales professionals who represent the client directly under the client’s identity.
05
Practical workflows, including AI-enabled commercial operations, that improve research, CRM quality and sales consistency.
06
People who understand both Chinese expansion goals and European commercial expectations.
