The Problem
§ Market entry into the US is still a major challenge due to:
o US market size compared to local market o Limited budgets
o No established “business network” in the US
§ Hiring the right team can take time and is expensive
§ US-based incubators / accelerators are not well suited to address the market entry needs of non-US companies
o Focus is on pre-funded or seed companies o Significant time & resource commitment o Limited business development support
The US remains the largest global VC market. However, to secure funding from local VCs, international startups must demonstrate traction in the US market.
