Case Studies

Expanding into Europe

A budding tech start-up from Silicon Valley sought our expertise for a European market entry project. We provided a comprehensive analysis of potential markets, focusing on consumer behaviours and local competition. With our guidance, they selected Germany as their entry point, and we assisted with all regulatory and compliance measures. Within the first year, the company saw a 30% growth in the European sector, solidifying their international presence.

Penetrating the African Frontier

A pharmaceutical giant, aiming to introduce an innovative drug into African markets, engaged our services for a smooth market entry. We initiated in-depth research on healthcare infrastructures, targeting countries with the highest potential for their product. After identifying Kenya and Nigeria as prime entry points, we facilitated partnerships with local distributors. Their product is now among the top-sellers in the region.

Navigating Asian Markets

When a prominent British luxury retailer wanted to tap into the Asian luxury market, they faced cultural and regulatory hurdles. Our team provided in-depth cultural training, ensuring that their branding and messaging resonated with the local audience. Through our local partner network, we also streamlined their store openings in Tokyo and Shanghai. Today, Asia contributes to 25% of their global sales.
