Enter a new country through people you already know
“Who in my network can help me enter a new country or market?”
Your former colleagues have spread across the world. We rebuild where each one lives and works today, find those in the country you are targeting and the ones who know it well, and show who can open which door.
Who it’s for
Executives opening a market, a subsidiary or a distribution network abroad.
What we look for in your network
- Contacts living or working in the target country today
- People who held a role there before
- Alumni of your former companies now in the market
- Local partners, distributors and advisors in your book
- Who among them you know well enough to ask

+ 63 more contacts in that market in the full document, each with its reason
Fictional people and companies. The level of detail is real.
What you receive
A market map: who you know there, who knows the market, who can introduce you, ranked by closeness.
It starts with your network rebuilt in ten working days: careers dated, where you know each person from, how close you were, who can reintroduce you. Delivered in person, as a workbook you can filter, a searchable page and a clean address book for your iPhone.
An NDA before any file is shared. To find someone, only a name and a company leave your address book.
You choose who stays out of the search.
Professional facts only: nothing on wealth, health, religion or legal matters.
Everything deleted at the end, with a dated certificate.
Questions
- Do you search in local languages?
- Yes, when a contact’s career is better documented locally, for example in Japanese.
- Can you cover several countries?
- Yes. The network is rebuilt once; each market is a view on it.
- What leaves my address book?
- Only a name and a company, or a title and a city, to find someone. Never a number, an email or a note.
