U.S. Market Entry

From initial launch to project execution.

International Manufacturers Overseas Vendors Foreign Investors

Everything your firm needs to establish, connect, and operate in the United States — handled by one accountable partner.

Winning the work is only half the journey. The other half is becoming a U.S. operation. Before your first crew mobilizes, your firm needs a legal entity, a bank account, insurance and surety capacity, tax registrations, visas for key personnel, and a network of local partners you can trust. In the wrong order, they stall each other.

Ascenzi & Associates has walked this road with firms entering U.S. advanced manufacturing, and we sequence it correctly the first time — so you're not just present in the U.S. market. You're operational.

What we handle

Corporate Banking
U.S. business banking relationships: accounts, credit foundations, and the infrastructure your payroll depends on.
Insurance & Surety Partnerships
Brokers who understand construction risk: general liability, workers' comp, and the bonding capacity your licenses require.
Tax Registration & TPT Filing
Arizona transaction privilege tax setup, coordinated with your accounting team so your revenue is compliant from invoice one.
E-2 Visa Pathway Support
Guidance through the E-2 treaty investor pathway, aligned with your entity structure and coordinated with immigration counsel.
Referral Network: A&E, Subs & HR
Day-one introductions to established U.S. partners, so you build with known quantities instead of cold calls.
Supplier Connections
Relationships with established U.S. suppliers from the start, so procurement doesn't become your first bottleneck.

How we work

STEP 01 Define the destination We start with your end state and work backward to what must exist first.
STEP 02 Sequence the setup Entity, banking, insurance, tax, visas, licensing — in the order that keeps each step from blocking the next.
STEP 03 Open the doors We make the introductions — bankers, brokers, A&E firms, subcontractors, suppliers — and stay in the room until it stands on its own.
STEP 04 Stay through execution As your first projects mobilize, we remain your operational partner — solving problems that only surface once real work begins.
The platform advantage

Market entry touches everything else we do. Your E-2 strategy shapes your entity structure; your entity structure shapes your contractor license; your license shapes who you hire. Because talent, licensing and market entry live under one roof, nothing falls between vendors.
