About

With over 30 years of experience, our LEAN market entry method maximizes speed & minimizes risks during your company’s journey to the North American market.

Our Mission

With its LEAN Market entry method, Takehill has changed the way technology companies expand their business to the U.S. market. Instead of spending millions of dollars upfront in marketing, sales and local team, Takehill’s 3-step program will first build the business hypothesis and then test the hypothesis in the field, before investing any significant resources in the US activities.

​At Takehill, we understand that more than half of the companies fail in their attempt to expand to the US market. This is typically due to poor preparation and underestimating the differences between US and EU markets. Takehill’s mission is to make the US market entry successful and save time and money on that journey.
