Challenge

Startups need the right partners to succeed in the US market

01Business Culture
Significant differences between home markets and the U.S.
02Capital
Costs and capital needs are higher in the U.S. VC funding requires local connections.
03Market Expertise
Tech-focused founders need help in sales, marketing and business development.
04Localization
Entity, technology, UX, network and ecosystem all need to be ready for western markets.
05Support
There has not been a venture studio focused on this gap. This is what Numen Ventures fills.

Our Support

The 3rd Co-founder

A venture studio model, not advice from the outside. Numen Ventures does not write a check and wish you luck, it works inside the company, on the things a founding team usually has no one to do.

  • Market positioning, trends, competitors, demand
  • Business model and competitive advantage
  • Company structure, flip, compliance, visas
  • Brand and marketing strategy
  • Sales plan, channels, partners, government
  • Venture capital, grants, and funding support
