🇬🇧 🇪🇺 If You Can Make It Here, You Can Make It Anywhere: Helping UK & EU Tech Thrive in NYC
​You crossed "The Pond" to fundraise for your startup or grow sales, but now realize that doing business in NYC is VERY different to London, Paris, Dublin, Berlin...
​​If that resonates - you need to be in the room on March 18th!​
​Our experts for the evening are: Dan Glazer & Chandini Jain.
​Daniel Glazer - a lifelong New Yorker who now leads the London office and US Expansion group at Silicon Valley-headquartered Wilson Sonsini. Â
​Dan has discussed US Expansion and Fundraising strategy with several thousand UK/EU startups over the past 15 years, with a focus on the professional and personal cultural transformation required for a UK/EU business to compete and win in the US.  Dan does not mince words!
​To get a flavor for what we’ll be discussing, here is the US Expansion, Fundraising and Exit FAQ Dan maintains on Medium: link.
