“Before joining, a number of interested clients hesitated to work with
us as they perceived us as being too far from them. Through our Tri-
ana office membership we were able to communicate with current and
potential US customers more effectively and have a convenient, cen-
trally located office space in New York City to host meetings while in
the US. The result was almost immediate. The first week we used the
space for meetings, we were able to sign our first agreements. This also
gave us the opportunity to interact with the Triana team and attend Tri-
ana sponsored networking events, which brought us tremendous value
and expanded our US-based network. I highly recommend Triana’s
office membership program as a first step for any company considering
expanding to the US.”

18. HOW WE WORK
BUSINESS MODEL
Although some of our shareholders are investors, The Triana Group itself
is not an investment fund. Its revenue model ranges from fee-for-service to
joint-venturing, and various agreements in between. Engagements typically
include success fees (sales commissions, bonuses, equity, or other forms of
compensation) with budget advances and other servicing fees.
PROCESS AND QUALITY CONTROL
An engagement partner has overall responsibility for a project, and mobi-
lizes appropriate resources within Triana and from its network of advisers
and sub-contractors totaling 200+. For quality control purposes, each
engagement is presented periodically for review by Triana peers.
OWNERSHIP AND CORPORATE STRUCTURE
The Triana Group, Inc., and its subsidiaries Triana Technologies, Inc. and Tri-
ana Life Sciences, Inc., are privately-held corporations registered in the State
of New York. Capital was provided by a family-owned holding and individu-
als originating from three continents. The Triana Group is also the co-owner
of a joint-venture in the Gulf countries.
