Business · China
Louis Wei founded Shanghai Steele Business Information Consulting Co., Ltd. (STEELE) in Shanghai in 2005. Since then, the company has continuously innovated and kept up with the times, providing customers with diversified business information consulting and legal services, such as background investigation, network security, as well as enterprise risk prevention.
With its unique resource advantage and its experienced consultant team – combined with cutting-edge IT capabilities – STEELE has maintained long-term and stable cooperative relationships with hundreds of well-known enterprises and law firms, both domestic and foreign, earning the trust and praise of a broad clientele.
To further assist with its mission, STEELE joined the World Association of Detectives (WAD) in 2011, ensuring beneficial affiliations with select cooperative suppliers, as well as a fully coordinated service platform for overseas investment, legal and regulatory consultation, in addition to overseas interest protection for Chinese enterprises. In 2021, the firm became the exclusive due diligence adviser for IR Global in China.
The firm’s client base is composed of well-known enterprises and law firms, both domestic and overseas, with leading positions in their industries. It also renders IP services for the world’s top 500 companies, always ensuring high-level protection of the customer’s interests.
Notably, RED and Alibaba’s subsidiary companies have completed enterprise risk prevention – such as non-competition evidence collection – under STEELE’s services. The firm has also advised another company whose funds were suspected to have been embezzled, and who entrusted STEELE to conduct a thorough investigation wherein it was discovered that employees had indeed embezzled the company’s funds. The employees in question were ultimately sentenced to three years’ fixed-term imprisonment by the court.
Similarly, the firm assisted the police in cracking down on a criminal gang who had been illegally selling counterfeit brand fibreoptic cutting machines online – in a significant case that received detailed coverage on the Shanghai Police Official News.
