Across the Pond: Strategic Thinking for Founders on US Expansion
For ambitious UK and European founders, the US represents a vast opportunity — but breaking into it requires more than just capital and confidence. It demands strategic clarity, operational readiness, and a nuanced understanding of what American investors, customers, and teams expect.
Join Wilson Sonsini, computecollective.xyz, and Systemiq Capital for an evening of candid discussion and strategic insight on how to expand and scale successfully in the US market. We’ll explore the key considerations around fundraising, structuring, go-to-market, hiring, and leadership that determine whether a UK/EU company can truly compete on US soil.
This session is designed for founders actively planning or exploring US expansion — blending practical business strategies, sound commercial advice, and real-world perspectives from those who’ve helped hundreds of companies make the leap.
