Company activities and impact

During this financial year, we built and launched an online platform at wailo.co.uk to support new immigrants from Hong Kong in starting and promoting their businesses in the UK more easily. The platform offers free registration, free business listing, and free public search functions, all aimed at reducing barriers for new entrepreneurs. As the company has not received any external funding, the project has been developed and operated entirely on a voluntary basis. Despite limited resources, the platform has achieved a peak traffic of over 30,000 requests per day, demonstrating strong community interest and usage. By offering a zero-cost promotional channel, we aim to lower the marketing burden and business risks faced by new immigrants. Ultimately, this initiative is designed to support community integration, stimulate local entrepreneurship, and contribute to the UK economy as a whole.
