𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 🇧🇪🇺🇸 This past Sunday, we had the pleasure of hosting Trendtracker’s Belgian Beer Night 🍻 in New York. A great moment to bring people together, exchange ideas and celebrate what’s ahead. “We initially thought expanding to the US would mainly come down to budget and product market fit. The real eye opener was that credibility, local presence and the right institutional partner make or break your entry.” That insight from Don Keleman, Managing Director US at Trendtracker, really captures what we see every day. Expanding to the US is rarely just about the product. It is about showing up, building trust 🤝 and being present in the market. The right network and support can make a huge difference in how fast and how well you gain traction. Great to see Trendtracker taking that next step under the leadership of Vincent Defour with two important milestones 🚀 They were selected for the International Landing Pad Network by the New York City Economic Development Corporation 🌆 And they have officially opened their New York City office, their first permanent base in North America 🏢 You can read more about their US expansion here 👇 https://lnkd.in/eDKm5Ehp A strong move that shows real commitment to the US market. This is exactly where we try to support companies at FIT USA. Not just entering the market, but helping them land, connect and grow in a sustainable way. Curious about expanding to the US?
