What Fundraising Strategy Is
ATA connects international companies to U.S. venture capital and family offices through warm introductions and institutional relationships — not website contact forms. Michael Salomon leads investor introductions through his network and manages the full fundraising sequence alongside Scott Gordon on deal structure. Every engagement is sequenced with entity formation and financial readiness to ensure a clean close.

Our Services
Every engagement covers all four pillars simultaneously — not sequentially. One general contractor, every layer running in parallel.
01
Pillar 01
The legal, financial, and operational base that makes U.S. presence real.
Legal and Entity
C-Corp/LLC, EIN, registered agent, contracts, and IP assignment.
Banking and Finance
Bank account, payments, bookkeeping, tax, and payroll setup.
Talent and Operations
U.S. executive hiring, HR infrastructure, and PEO/EOR setup.
02
Pillar 02
Regulatory frameworks and compliance programs your sector requires.
Regulatory
FedRAMP, SOC 2, HIPAA, NIST, ITAR, and state compliance programs.
Immigration
O-1, L-1, and E-2 visas and work permits for founders and key personnel.
Insurance and Risk
D&O, cyber liability, E&O, and general business insurance.
03
Pillar 03
The validators and relationships that make U.S. institutions trust you.
U.S. Readiness Board
Advisory board placements and credible U.S. market positioning.
Gov. Relations
Agency positioning (CISA, DoD, FinCEN) and federal policy navigation.
U.S. Country Manager
Named U.S. executive representative with in-market authority.
04
Pillar 04
The go-to-market infrastructure that converts presence into revenue.
Go-to-Market
Strategy, messaging, customer mapping, channels, and PR execution.
Fundraising Readiness
Cap table, financials, board governance, and investor materials.
Fundraising Strategy
U.S. investor targeting, warm introductions, and pitch positioning.
The Challenge
U.S. venture capital is relationship-driven, stage-specific, and narrative-dependent. A strong product with real revenue can still fail to raise if the pitch doesn't translate, the investors are wrong-sized, or the entity structure isn't in place to receive the wire.
A company with €5M ARR and strong EU customers gets ignored by U.S. VCs because the pitch doesn't translate. U.S. investors need to hear the story through their lens — TAM, unit economics, and U.S. go-forward strategy.
Most founders email VC firms through their website. That email goes nowhere. Access to U.S. investors requires warm introductions from trusted intermediaries within the investor's network.
Raising a $5M Series A from a fund that primarily does $50M+ checks wastes 6 months. Mapping investors by stage, sector, check size, and geography is a full-time research project.
Most U.S. VCs won't wire to a foreign entity. The fundraising strategy must be sequenced with Delaware entity formation and U.S. banking to close on time.
