On this page, you will find a quick description of resources available for companies in Spain considering investments in the United States and some suggestions for getting started.

Investing in the USA

President Obama announced the SelectUSA initiative to showcase the United States as the world’s premier business location and to provide easy access to federal-level programs and services related to business investment. SelectUSA is designed to complement the activities of our states—the primary drivers of economic development in the United States.

In support of SelectUSA, we created ServiceSolutionsUSA to help Spanish investors enter the U.S market more effectively by allowing them to easily communicate with experienced U.S. service companies as well as with trade associations and chambers of commerce based in the U.S.  After providing us your company information and requests that you have, we will widely distribute your inquiries to organizations that can help fulfill project requests.  Join us.
