Step 1
Get U.S.-ready from home
Investors and corporate operators pressure-test your ICP, positioning, pricing, go-to-market, and pitch until they hold up with American buyers.
Programs · U.S. Market Access
Land in the U.S. ready to win.
For international founders moving to the U.S. Get U.S.-ready from home over three months, then land in Silicon Valley with a network, a plan, and investors who already know you.
How it works
Prepare at home. Land with a network.
Most founders arrive in the U.S. cold. U.S. Market Access gets you ready before you move, so you land already known and already moving.
Step 2
Land with a network
Arrive in Silicon Valley with warm introductions and a credible network instead of a cold start, and Venture Dock as your base.
Step 3
Showcase on Demo Day
Pitch to a curated room of VCs, angels, and operators. We bring the investors to you.
