NSIV Programming sets you up for success

The North Star Programming

 

Programming that moves you from where you are right now to the next big milestones in your startup’s journey.

Joining an incubator means more than occupying a desk or a lab bench.

You’re committed to building an impactful business, not just a product, and we’re committed to helping you achieve your goal.

Building a business takes time, just like science.  Putting the pieces of a business together is a learning process and the NSIV North Star programming helps you focus on the business, not just the technology, in a way that makes sense for you.

North Star is about curated guidance, using all the tools – people, time, labs, offices, money, networks, education – to advance a startup’s promise and probability of success.

Every sailor knows the North Star is a reference point.  How you use the reference point, the decisions you and your team make, ultimately determine success.

Soft Landing Programming

Your Journey.  Our Region.

 

Soft landings.  Not crashing into docks.

Moving into a new country or new region is stressful.  You don’t know the rules (spoken or unspoken), the people, the players, the networks, the laws, the taxes, the costs.  It’s easy to assume that the ecosystem operates just like the one you’re familiar with.  It doesn’t.

NSIV’s Soft-Landing programming provides a supportive, cost-effective environment for companies looking to expand into New England or the U.S. markets.  It’s cost-effective AND learning-effective for your staff as they work on market strategy and entry.

A certified Soft-Landing site, we provide a full-range of services and networks.

Soft-Landing Programming Includes:

Market entry

Understanding how US markets work, how to gain entry, how to pitch and form strategic relationships

Legal

Corporate structure, immigration, licenses,  import/export assistance, agreements and contracts.

Finance

Assistance with banking, accounting & bookkeeping, establishing credit, insurance, access to capital/investors

Cross cultural

Business development training, prepping for US culture of business, tactical tips for doing business in the US, referrals for translation services and English language training.

Employee Transition

Assimilation into the North Shore community, introduction to local services (government, schools, extracurricular activities), housing and relocation guidance, help solving everyday living problems.
