American Tech Association

+ Prime Projects

The execution partner
for ambitious
expansion.

One fixed-scope engagement. Every regulatory, legal, and commercial layer. Weeks to operational.

Not consulting. Execution.

Prime is designed for Series A–C international tech companies with real traction that need a named in-market partner to own their U.S. entry — not a slide deck, not a strategy call, not a referral list.

ATA acts as the general contractor for every layer of U.S. market entry. Legal, compliance, banking, credibility, go-to-market — all running in parallel, all under one engagement, all delivered on a fixed fee.

Legal entity, banking, and operating infrastructure

Full regulatory compliance stack

U.S. credibility and government relations

Go-to-market strategy and first-dollar revenue

What we deliver.
Every service, running in parallel.

Every engagement covers all four pillars simultaneously — not sequentially. One general contractor, every layer running in parallel.

01

Pillar 01

Foundations

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

Compliance

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

Credibility

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

Commercial

The go-to-market infrastructure that converts presence into revenue.

Go-to-Market

Fundraising Readiness

Cap table, financials, board governance, and investor materials.

Fundraising Strategy

U.S. investor targeting, warm introductions, and pitch positioning.

Built for growth-stage international tech companies.

  • Stage

    Series A–C or equivalent

  • Funding

    $10M+ raised or $3M+ ARR

  • Entry

    Entering the U.S. for the first time

  • Sector

    Regulated: Cyber, Fintech, AI, HealthTech, RegTech

  • Timeline

    Ready to move in weeks, not quarters

Not a Fit

Prime is a high-effort, high-coordination engagement. It's not right for every company — and we're direct about that.

  • Bootstrapped with under $1M in revenue
  • Already have a functioning U.S. team and operations
  • Looking for a pitch deck or advisory slides
  • Pre-product or pre-revenue stage

Three phases. One coordinated team.

Phase 01

Discovery & Scoping

We map your regulatory stack, identify jurisdictional exposure, and define which of the 12 layers apply to your company. Output: a fixed-scope engagement document and a clear fee.

Phase 02

Parallel Execution

All workstreams run simultaneously — legal, banking, compliance, credibility, and commercial. ATA acts as general contractor, coordinating every layer under a single engagement.

Phase 03

Operational Handoff

KPIs validated, accounts active, first revenue conversations underway. We hand off every asset, credential, and relationship directly to your team with documentation.
