Why this female founder is bringing Australian entrepreneurs to the Big Apple

There are few globally-renowned hubs of culture and commerce around the world that can lay claim to the same thriving entrepreneurial spirit as that of New York City. And now, a growing number of businesses in Sydney, Australia are turning their attention to the Big Apple as a first port of call for global expansion.

Based in Sydney, founder and CEO of FD Global Connections, Trena Blair is an expert in expanding businesses from Australia into the U.S., with New York as the entry point. Since establishing FD Global Connections in 2014, Blair has brought with her some of Sydney’s best and brightest entrepreneurs and businesses to New York across the luxury retail, wellness, FinTech, higher education, infrastructure and professional services sectors, to name but a few.

Through a series of three month-long immersion programs held in New York throughout the year, Blair prepares and trains start-ups and small to medium sized businesses that want to scale up. In April this year, Blair also led her first “Female Founders” immersion program for women in technology, with another program launching this September for Australian FinTech, InsureTech and RegTech businesses that are ready to expand into the U.S.
