FAQ

Most frequent questions and answers

 

  • The environment is too complex — we might face fines or restrictions​
  • The UK’s regulatory landscape, with bodies like the CMA, can indeed be challenging—but that’s where we come in. Our program provides direct access to government insiders and agencies who can guide you on compliance with laws like the Digital Markets Act. You’ll also learn from startups who’ve navigated these hurdles, ensuring you avoid costly mistakes. For just £1500, we help you enter the market with confidence, not fear.​

 

  • The cost of entry is too high—we can’t afford additional expenses​
  • Entering the UK without a clear plan is what’s truly expensive. Flying over yourself can cost £6,600-£21,300 for a team, while a consultant can set you back £5,000-£27,100+. Our program, at just £1500, saves you thousands while delivering a tailored strategy and network. It’s a low-risk investment that prevents far greater costs from trial and error.​
  • We’re not sure our product fits UK market preferences.​
  • Adapting to the UK market is a valid concern—but our program is designed to address it. You’ll gain deep market insights and real-time feedback from senior leaders and corporate partners. The optional pitch at the UK DTX Event lets you test your solution with decision-makers, ensuring you align with UK expectations before fully committing. We’ll help you get it right the first time.
  • Post-Brexit uncertainties make the UK less appealing than other markets.​
  • While Brexit has introduced uncertainties, the UK remains a global tech hub with immense opportunities in Smart Cities and AI. Our program mitigates these risks by providing up-to-date insights on regulations, data flows, and supply chains. You’ll leave with a clear strategy to navigate the post-Brexit landscape, making the UK a smart choice for expansion.
  • The UK seems hostile to tech firms with its regulatory approach.​
  • Perceptions of hostility often stem from high-profile cases, but the UK is still a thriving market for tech innovation. Our program connects you with government and industry leaders who can help you position your business to meet regulatory expectations. You’ll learn how to turn challenges into opportunities, ensuring a smooth entry.
  • We can join accelerators or trade bodies directly.​
  • Trade bodies and accelerators provide broad support, but they lack the personalized, hands-on approach of our program. We curate 1:1 meetings, deliver tailored market insights, and help you choose the right accelerators—saving you months of trial and error. For £1500, you get a head start that ensures you’re on the right path.
  • We can apply for grants and tenders ourselves.​
  • Applying for grants and tenders in the UK is complex, with high rejection rates. Our program connects you with procurement leads and government insiders who can guide you to the right opportunities and help you craft winning applications. You’ll save time and increase your success rate—all for a fraction of the cost of doing it alone.​
  • We’ll build our network over time.​
  • Building a network from scratch can take months or years, delaying your market entry and growth. Our program delivers a trusted network in just 2 weeks, connecting you with 20+ senior leaders and corporate partners. Why wait when you can start strong for just £1500?
