Discover opportunities for European tech companies despite tariffs and political uncertainty in 2026 [Daniel Kroepfl](https://www.stateminded.com/en/blog/author/daniel-kroepfl) Jan 7, 2026 --- Often we hear that foreign businesses entering the US are careful when it comes to establishing their sales and business footprint.  A phenomenon we truly understand given the uncertainties we felt with tariffs and trade inequalities.
