Silicon Slopes | Bridge from Niort Numeric to US Market

What are the advantages and challenges a French company faces when expanding to the US Market? Silicon Slopes is based in Utah, and is a growing tech and entrepreneurial hub of the US. Learn from the experience of Kereon Intelligence and Carte Blance during their expansion to Silicon Slopes.

Speakers :

• Landon Bench serves as Partner at Kereon Intelligence US, headquartered near the heart of Silicon Slopes in Lehi, Utah.
  Expansion to the US market is more than translation from French to English. Core competencies, marketing messages, sales pitches, customer journeys and implementation roadmaps require a judicious repackaging as a company moves from France to the US. Landon is helping create a bridge between France and Silicon Slopes by expanding Kereon’s reach into the US market. Previous to his work with Kereon Intelligence, Landon was responsible for sales, marketing and corporate compliance at Humatech, Inc., creating and carrying out the launch into new markets that significantly increased revenue. He also oversaw the business development efforts for several major accounts at Avail Medical. Prior, Landon worked as the operations manager for the downtown extension of the Las Vegas Monorail Project.
  Landon received two degrees from Brigham Young University: MBA, Finance and BS, Electronics Engineering Technology.
