InboundLA Testimonial
Blaine is a client who, in 2019, took advantage of the IBA's InboundLA program for his Australian Cleantech company.
"All high-growth businesses from outside the United States dream of accessing the US market and I was no different. With the possibilities and potential comes risk and a steady stream of blind spots. The IBA's InboundLA package was the ideal method for my small business to establish my North American headquarters. Before my first major decision they provided free access to multiple corporate attorneys, tax experts, marketing consultants, IP lawyers and whatever international business experts I needed...including furnished office space. In less than a month the IBA introduced two high profile buyers and negotiated a way for me to offset most of my financial risk of expansion. I'd be shocked if a major consulting firm could provide the IBA's service for 10x the cost." Blaine Patterson, CEO of BBQ In The Park
