A third cohort of UK tech scaleups looking to expand to the US have joined the Tech Nation US Growth Workshop this week.
International expansion has been identified as one of the largest scaling challenges by UK scaleups, and the US is one of the top priority markets within the UK’s tech ecosystem.
All scaleups selected for the workshop have the resources and commitment to expand into the US within the next 12 months, and Tech Nation’s US Growth Workshop provides the insight, expertise and connections needed to accelerate their growth and success into the US market.
The cohort spans across several tech sectors and industries, including HealthTech, Autonomous Vehicles, LegalTech and SaaS, with cutting edge IoT and AI applications.
The two-day workshop is sponsored by Wilson Sonsini, Fragomen, and Foothold America, and delivered by entrepreneurs and investors who have already scaled into the market includes educational and practical advice on the US ecosystem, go-to-market strategies, operational considerations, talent and recruitment, business development and fundraising.
The US Growth Workshop runs every couple of months, with the next taking place in February. To register your interest, please visit Tech Nation’s Growth Platform.
