What starups say about our program
Gianpaolo Sgaramella
Co-Founder at GETINVESTORS Ai Navigator (B2B Saas)
I find Softlanding Program very useful. The structure was very comfortable for all participants to attend lectures. Every module has been created to give a complete overview on how to relocate the business to the USA.

Big thank you for all tips and suggestions. I will definitely recommend it to other founders I personally know.
Kirill Krivonosov
Founder & CEO at GetMeBack
I really enjoyed the Vibranium Softlanding Program. The regularity of the program and the variety of topics covered were great. One of the best things about the program was the ability to ask questions in the group chat and receive quick answers from the experts. Overall, it was an excellent experience and I highly recommend it to other startups looking to move to the US.
