SCALE US 2023 Program Alumni and Testimonials​

"The Scale US Program from Business Sweden gave us a perfect mix of support to continue our journey in the US market. A process that had probably taken a year could be completed in a few months. Efficient and at the same time a very fun experience.“​

CEO, Beyond Medals

"Ever since Goatlane reached out for assistance, the Business Sweden team has consistently offered invaluable support. Their cohesive teamwork is reassuring, providing multiple points of contact for communication. I've already recommended Business Sweden to friends, which serves as the strongest testament to our satisfaction with this program.“​

Founder & CEO, Goatlane

“Being a part of the program has been one of the most valuable things we've done (and we are growing almost 100% per year, so we have done some ok things). The program tracks, the coaches, and the network with other brands have given us more value than we could have hoped for.”​

Co-Founder, Monokel Eyewear

"We're expanding much in the US both online and with retailers, and the SCALE Programs has been valuable to us going forward. We have incorporated and gained knowledge about the US market and important regulations, in combination with great contacts for the future.“​
