Meet Susan Combs. A Mizzou Tiger, a half-marathoner, a public speaker, and an active sports enthusiast. She’s also a super hero of sorts as she battles against the labyrinth of pitfalls and particularities that dot the US business landscape. In fact, she is also known as the Insurance Vixen.
Companies from Finland and the other Nordic countries now have an even better landing pad in the U.S. market as the Helsinki-based, b-to-b network Amcham Finland moves its New York operations into bigger premises in Times Square.
A country of five million people compared to a country of 350 million people.
In a little over two months, Helsinki will be the talk of the town when thousands of tech entrepreneurs, venture capitalists and journalists from around the world will meet for the largest tech startup event outside of Silicon Valley – Slush.
Business and investment opportunities – just like Amcham – are borderless. For investors, the Nordic countries are often seen as one.
“The Silicon Valley is not right for everyone,” says Mike Klyszeiko, who helps Nordic companies to the U.S. market. We asked him why.
Do you know the feeling? You are excited and eager to take on a new challenge but have no clue where to start. Discussing ideas with your peers can be a great first step and one that Amcham can help you take.
“US-access is a bit like a game of Monopoly,” says Mike Klyszeiko, who runs the Launchpad USA program. Really?
Amcham Finland’s network is set to grow thanks to a new partnership with AmCham Estonia that will help more companies succeed in the world’s largest consumer market.
The doors are open. The ribbon is cut. Amcham’s member companies have a new foothold on American soil. The office, at 65 Broadway, is their go-to hub at the epicenter of the world’s biggest market.
