We are excited to host back-to-back events in Toronto and Waterloo Region as we bring together subject matter experts to discuss “Scaling Your Business to the U.S.” from the perspectives of intellectual property, talent and cross-border tax.

Joining us will be partners from leading U.S. IP law firm, Knobbe Martens, to discuss protecting your hard-earned Ontario intellectual property (IP) when expanding your business to the U.S. market. Orange County, California-based partners Dan Altman, Harnik Shukla and Vlad Teplitskiy will be discussing.

And we are delighted to welcome Azhar Janjua, Managing Director of Kitchener-based Communitech Outposts, as a speaker to address how to streamline the process of hiring talent in the U.S. Acting as an Employer-of-Record Service, Communitech Outposts make it easy to hire global talent so you don’t have to worry about the hassle of setting up and maintaining a foreign back office.

RSM Canada’s tax professionals Peter Ahn, Senior Director International Tax and Ashank Narang, U.S. Tax Manager, will be sharing key tax considerations to complete our look at key strategic considerations when scaling a business to the U.S. market.

We are excited to be welcoming our guests to the campus of Communitech in Kitchener for our event. Thank you to our friends at Communitech for their generosity in hosting us! Guests who are interested in taking a tour of the Communitech campus are welcome to join us immediately after our program.
