How a Boring Problem Became a Billion-Dollar Story 🚀🌍

A startup I advise helps companies expand globally—incorporating abroad and managing legal & compliance requirements across multiple countries.

Their product is solid, especially for parent companies juggling entities worldwide.

But to be very honest—cross-border compliance isn’t exactly exciting for most techies and problem-solvers in the startup world. It’s a world of massive Excel sheets, painful reconciliations, and legal complexities.

Yet, their pitch? Something along these lines, brilliant storytelling. 👇

💡 “Every year, trillions of dollars in global trade never happen not by lack of ambition but by the complexity of expanding across borders. Companies hesitate to go international because setting up and managing entities abroad is a nightmare—legal red tape, cultural nuances, compliance risks, and operational headaches. We are tearing down these barriers, making global expansion as seamless as onboarding another employee. This is one of the last industries yet to be digitised, and we are leading the charge.”.

Why does this story work?


✅ Investors see a massive untapped opportunity 🚀


✅ Employees feel part of a game-changing mission 🌍


A great story redefines why it matters!
