The Expansion Playbook: What It Really Takes to Win in New Markets
In 2026, the United States marks the 250th anniversary of its independence from Great Britain - a milestone that gives this conversation a uniquely timely backdrop. Two and a half centuries after the two countries formally went their separate ways, the Atlantic is more connected than ever by capital, technology, talent and commerce. British companies are crossing it again - this time not to govern, but to build, invest and compete in one of the world's most dynamic markets.
Against that historic backdrop, Miami offers a particularly compelling place to hold the conversation. The city has evolved far beyond its traditional role as the US gateway to Latin America. Today, Miami is becoming a global hub connecting the UK and Europe with the United States, Latin America and the Caribbean - a natural crossroads for businesses, capital and people moving across the broader "pound-to-dollar-to-peso" world.
Join Miami Fintech Club and Paysend for an executive breakfast conversation with Ronald Millar, Co-Founder of Paysend, Jairo Riveros, President, Americas at Paysend. Together, they will explore what it really takes to cross borders and win: why entering the US is harder than it looks, how companies can navigate regulation, licensing, distribution and local market realities, and what the experience of a UK-founded fintech expanding across the Americas can teach companies moving in both directions.
Expect a candid, practical conversation - not a conference-stage script - with founders, operators, investors and ecosystem leaders discussing how Miami can serve as a launchpad for the next generation of transatlantic and Americas growth.
