Ways to work with us.

We are the launchpad for global companies entering the US.

Government and trade programs

For trade agencies, embassies, and economic development bodies. Sponsored cohorts and delegations, designed around your sectors and run on the ground in New York and San Francisco.

Government and trade programs →
Startup programs

For the founders you send. Bootcamps and acceleration that get a company ready for this market: the pitch, the pricing, the mentors, and buyers who will take the meeting.

Startup programs →
GTM programs

For a single company chasing its first US customer. One to one rather than in a cohort. Positioning, pricing, and pipeline, worked until there is a signed client.

GTM for founders →

Don't just take our word for it.

Agencies and public bodies across 20+ countries run their US expansion programs with us.

Agencies come back and run a second cohort with us. What earns that is who is in the room, and what happens after everyone flies home.

We work the buyer side every day

We operate innovation centers and run corporate innovation programs, so your companies meet buyers we already work with every week.

On the ground, in market

Our team is in New York and New Jersey year round. The agenda is built in advance and worked in person, meeting by meeting.

Outcomes you can report

Meetings taken, conversations opened, follow-ups scheduled, and deals closed. Reported against what you set out to deliver.

Success Story: Canada.

Canada's Trade Commissioner Service commissioned a cohort with us, saw what came out of it, and commissioned a second.

Why Canada's Trade Commissioner Service came back for a second cohort

It was an honor and a true privilege to be in New York City with the Canadian Technology Accelerators, SOSA, and 6 other incredible Canadian startups that are shaking things up in the RetailTech sector. I’m still processing all the incredible discussions and ideas exchanged throughout the week.
