You’re invited for a deep-dive into getting results from the USA!
Successful market entry means identifying the right partners, understanding state by state regulatory differences, and building relationships before you need them. The US negotiation landscape rewards directness, preparation, and follow through.
Whether your goal is establishing distribution networks, securing B2B appointments, or landing pilot projects with port authorities, utilities, hyperscalers, or hospital systems, the path forward requires a structured approach and local presence.
Digital solutions can achieve commercial traction in 3 to 36 months depending on complexity. Hardware and equipment solutions typically require 2 to 4 years.
The Turku region has world class expertise across maritime, clean energy, technology, and health. The question isn’t whether American buyers need what you offer. It’s whether you’re ready to meet them on their terms.
