# Taking a recruitment business into the US

Sector: UK to US. Source: https://launch-rec.com/pathways/us-expansion

## Direct answer

Entity, employer of record, state compliance, first US billers and the investors who fund the crossing.

## How this pathway runs

1. **Apply and get read properly** — a short application, then a real conversation about traction, market and the founder.
2. **Get investment-ready** — the model, narrative and go-to-market pressure-tested with an operator who has done it.
3. **Meet the right few, not the many** — hand-picked introductions to investors and operators whose thesis fits.
4. **Keep the partner after the wire** — the operator stays through hiring, board build and the next raise.
