PURPOSE & SCOPE
The determining success factor of innovation is not the act of creation but the ability to bring a well-supported
creation successfully to large markets. Going global fast is a mentality that Silicon Valley technology companies
and investors have been implementing with great success. Europe on the other hand is lagging in their going
global initiatives and execution. European companies tend to go after complete local dominance before the
thought of global expansion crosses their mind. This difference in mentality places European ventures at a
major disadvantage.
MergingMinds International supports European technology companies with their US market entry initiatives to ignite their
global presence. We believe that any company should be able to test product-market-fit in the US with low
risk, reasonable cost, and the right tools and network to enable success. Thus, MergingMinds offers a multistep
solution designed with different service modules to be integrated based on timing and best fit.
MergingMinds has the framework to bring unique product and service solutions to the US starting in Florida.
Through our platform, our dedicated and active team members, mentors, and partners will connect with and
join selected companies in executing their unique market entry initiatives.
MergingMinds International provides a go-to-market initiative for its members at a cost and speed that would otherwise
not be available. Our program offers European companies access to a platform to test their value proposition
and market fit in the US by engaging with a mix of potential customers, strategic partners, and industry experts.
