Programs

If the US market is where you want to be ANZA is the place to start

» Gateway to the US: Our premier program, the Gateway to the US, is targeted to companies considering doing business in the world’s largest market. This 3-month program works with Australian and New Zealand business owners, CEOs, senior executives, innovators and entrepreneurs to explore your company’s potential in the US marketplace. The program culminates in a 3-day summit in Silicon Valley, USA where you will have the chance to showcase your company before a US audience with senior-level business opportunity and funding connections. The Gateway to the US follows this principle: Education + Promotion = An informed decision about entering the US market.

» FocUS Marketing Workshops: The “focus” in these workshops is the US market. This one-day intensive session is offered as part of our Gateway and Fast Track programs, as well as individually in major Australian and New Zealand cities. Participating Australian and New Zealand companies quickly discover that what works in the home marketplace does not always translate in the US—even though we share the same language and have many similarities in our business cultures. The FocUS Marketing Workshop cuts through the similarities to the differences, and then helps you refine and perfect your product pitch and company message to grab hold of US investors, entrepreneurs and executives.

» Fast Track to the US: ANZA’s Fast Track to the US is a comprehensive 15-month program that provides you and your company with a clear path to US export success while reducing costs and risks. The Fast Track is designed for companies with strong, global potential—many have already made inroads into the US, but want an absolute breakthrough. The Fast Track and ANZA’s first-class mentors help committed companies capitalize on existing connections and move in new and more lucrative directions. If you are looking to secure funding, find partners and/or gain a foothold in the US marketplace at an accelerated pace, the Fast Track to the US program will work with you to accomplish these goals. The Fast Track to the US follows this principle: Navigate the challenging US business terrain at a top—yet safe—speed in line with your strategic objectives.

» Bridge to the US: Find out how one of our programs can best help you enter or better navigate the US marketplace. The Bridge to the US is designed to work with you to determine your company’s position and potential in the US. We will put you in touch with ANZA network members and mentors to best assess which one of our programs is right for you—or custom design a program with you that will meet your business strategy in regard to the US market.
