LaGrande Global helped an established marketing company from the United States team up with tourism startups in Latin America for productive investment and knowledge-sharing relationships. The investing company gained access to niche intelligence, and the fund delivered an above-average ROI.
The company in question sought to level up its services by tapping into tourism marketing opportunities in one of the world’s most booming geographical areas for travel.
After determining the investing corporation’s goals and performing research on potential startup partnerships, LaGrande Global connected the company with promising emerging initiatives in a diverse range of focus areas, including ecotourism, luxury, and adventure travel.
