SUM Innovation Prepares to Host Third Annual Summit in New York City
New York (PRWEB) September 09, 2016 -- Accounting management and consulting firm SUM Innovation is gearing up to host its third annual summit for thought leaders and entrepreneurs September 12-15 in New York City.
#SUMTech16 includes an entire week of content designed to support global entrepreneurs. The latest iteration of the summit will focus on what it takes to succeed as a global entrepreneur and strategies for making U.S. expansion a reality for more international startups.
“Whether you’re looking to hire your first U.S. salesperson or want to move your operations into the States, we’re certain you’ll gain the insights necessary to expand. Ultimately, this platform is about providing a means to an end. We want our global entrepreneurs to thrive in the U.S. market, and we want to lower those barriers of entry,” says Mathew Heggem, founder of SUMTech and CEO of SUM Innovation.
