ANZA. Innovation Rewarded.

>> Gateway to the US:

• Education + Promotion = An informed decision about entering the US market.
  
  Our premier program, the Gateway to the US, is targeted to companies considering doing business in the world’s largest market. This 2-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.

>>FocUS Marketing Workshop:

• 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:

• Navigate the challenging US business terrain at a top—yet safe—speed in line with your strategic objectives.
  

  
  ANZA’s Fast Track to the US is a comprehensive 12-month program designed for CEOs and founders of innovative companies. The Fast Track to the US works with companies with strong global potential to establish a clear path to US export success while reducing costs and risks. The Fast Track and ANZA’s unique portfolio of 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.
  

>> 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 works with you to determine your company’s position and potential in the US. Each year ANZA holds events in major Australian and New Zealand cities, such as our "Success in the US" tour and "Silicon Valley-style Power Networking". These events give entrepreneurs and CEOs of startups and burgeoning companies Down Under a chance to meet with the ANZA team and US mentors, as well as the opportunity for business consultations to best assess which one of our programs is right for you to meet your business strategy for expansion and growth in the US market.
