Why MiamiWho we help
Czech and European companies ready to build a presence in the US.
What we do
Strategy, market research and business development, plus the practical side. In practice, that means company formation, legal and tax set-up, staffing, and a US business address and virtual office. It also means a representative in Miami and a back office small enough to run from Prague. We also get you and your team settled in South Florida.
What you gain
US customers, a working operation and investor introductions, with one person on the ground who knows both sides.
From first call to a foothold in the US
-
Explore
We learn how your business works and tell you straight whether Miami is the right first step. If another US city fits better, we say so.
-
Prepare
Market research, an expansion plan, and the right lawyers, accountants and banks for company formation, compliance and tax, all coordinated by us.
-
Land
We help you and your team get settled in the city. Then we set up staffing, operations, digital marketing and IT, with a lean back office so a small team can run your US entity.
-
Grow
Introductions to customers, partners and investors, plus access to US government programs and officials, funding and joint ventures.
You work with Jitka. Start to finish.
There is no account manager and no hand-off to a junior team. From the first call to your first US customer, you deal with the founder directly. When lawyers, accountants or banks are needed, she brings them in and coordinates them. As a result, you still have one point of contact.
Discreet by design
Czech Connect does not name its clients or publish client counts. We work with a deliberately small, hand-picked group of companies, and we'd rather earn their trust than borrow their logos. What we can tell you is where we've worked. For example, we have helped companies find US customers, partners and investors, and open doors to US government programs and officials.

Rooted in Miami's Czech community
Czech Connect works in partnership with the Czech School in Miami, founded by Jitka in 2023 to teach children Czech language and culture and to bring Czech and Slovak families together.
Based in the US and looking at Europe? Czechia can be your beachhead.
