At the AmCham Trade & Investment Conference, our Cristian Bullokles (CRO) shared two keys to landing in the US market, based on Darwoft’s own journey. 🇺🇸 🌎

🔵 Be ready first. Reaching the US takes a high-quality product or service, one that can truly compete in that market.

🔵 Be part of an ecosystem. When we established our HQ in Arlington, Virginia, we started working with @aedbizlaunch . They opened the door for us, introducing us to universities and local companies and helping us become part of the Virginia ecosystem.

No company lands alone. Quality gets you ready, but connections are what let you in. 🤝

Thank you Arlington Economic Development and @agenciaprocordoba for building bridges between Córdoba and Arlington, and @amchamarg for creating spaces to share these lessons.

More from Cristian’s talk coming soon.

Let’s build what’s next, together. 🚀

GLG Business Law Practice Chair Tammy Hui joined participants of the 2026 Arlington Growth Accelerator last week, hosted by BizLaunch, Arlington’s Small Business Assistance Network in partnership with SCORE Mentors.

The program brings together established Arlington business owners who are ready to grow, giving them the opportunity to step away from day-to-day operations, exchange ideas with fellow entrepreneurs, and develop practical plans for the next stage of their businesses.

As a program partner, GLG is providing cohort members with complimentary one-on-one legal consultations, with Tammy serving as a resource as they consider the legal decisions that come with business growth.

Pictured here with Tammy is SCORE Certified Mentor Steven Lipper, who developed the Arlington Growth Accelerator in collaboration with Arlington Economic Development.

We’re also looking forward to sponsoring the program’s wrap-up networking event on December 4, bringing together participants, mentors, and partners to celebrate their accomplishments and the relationships they’ve built along the way.

Thank you to Arlington Economic Development, BizLaunch, SCORE, and everyone involved in bringing this program to life. We’re proud to be part of it!

Growth doesn't happen alone.

Over the past several weeks, Arlington business owners came together through the Arlington Growth Accelerator to step back from the day-to-day, challenge their thinking and build practical plans for growth. From peer learning and honest conversations to strategy sessions and mentorship, this cohort demonstrated the power of investing in what's next.

A big thank you to our partner,@score_mentors, for helping make this program possible and for supporting Arlington's entrepreneurs every step of the way.

☕🚚 Since opening in Arlington, @Red_Bean_Harvest_Coffee has shown that growth is strongest when it is built through community. The launch of their new coffee truck reflects the power of entrepreneurship, collaboration, and local connections.
