Hey, I am looking to set up a business in which I and hopefully another person from America can import items that are not here in the UK but are in America. Any one got any ideas?

Thanks

Hmmmm, not right off. Is there something that interests you that might be over there?

Chocolates might be a potential area to pursue....

Think high ticket items like medical, military, engineering and construction equipment

It is in technologically advanced products, available through limited distribution channels (i.e. not like consumer electronics) is where you'll find the greatest opportunities

That's where you should focus on creating value - widening distribution channels for distressed manufacturers


This....and financial services. Importing US financial products to UK will yield you a fortune beyond your wildest dreams. Pull it off and the grandchildren of your grandchildren will continue to live in luxury for generations to come

Akula how would you suggest introducing US financial services? and could you expand on what you mean by "widening distribution channels for distressed manufacturers" just to re-iterate my point im am located in the UK and would like a to find a Business partner to work with on this project in the USA

Thanks

[akula]

no, not really, i can't expand on these things right now, because it's not the right time

this thread is about opportunity selection

I've given you feedback that one opportunity is to engage in innovation arbitrage, either in relation to technology or financial services.

Where do you see opportunities?
