Start Here: Private Strategy Intensive

Network Accelerator

Your first strategic move.

One 60-minute session. You leave having already met 2 people by name, not "warm introductions", an actual name, why they said yes, and an opener that works. Plus a written 30-day plan, and Marina calls you on day 30 to check you used it.

Built for Grant — male founder or investor, early-to-growth stage, entering Bali, Dubai, London, or anywhere new with zero real relationships on the ground.

You leave with

• A personalised expansion strategy
• At least 2 warm introductions, by name
• A 30-day action plan
• A personal 30-day follow-up with Marina
• Trusted access to Ascend’s global ecosystem

USD $550 / hour, by request

Best for Founders and investors entering a market with zero real relationships. New to Bali and just need local guidance? Start with Bali Insider Access instead. Ready for hands-on support with the move itself? That’s Ascend Concierge, most clients move there next.

Curated Private Dining

Ascend Dinners

A private table, built around you.

You want the right 8 to 10 people around one table, but building that list, choosing the venue, and running the evening takes weeks you don’t have. Tell me who you want in the room and why, and I design, host, and run the dinner end-to-end, so you walk in and just sit down.

Built for Founders, investors, and hosts who want a specific group of people in one room, without spending weeks on guest lists, venues, and logistics.

What I handle

• A curated guest list, built around your goals and the people you actually want to meet
• Venue, menu, and seating designed for real conversation, not a boardroom
• Personally hosted by Marina, or briefed and run by her team
• A follow-up with warm introductions after the dinner, so the connections keep moving

From $1,500 USD

Final quote depends on guest count, venue, and format, quoted after your request.

Best for Anyone who wants a private dinner built around a specific outcome, closing a deal, deepening a partnership, or simply gathering the right people. Want to join one of Marina’s own curated dinners instead? Request your seat.

Hands-On Expansion Support

Ascend Concierge

Your private expansion partner.

You want to move, but you don’t know the visa rules, which lawyer to trust, or whether the villa you’re eyeing is worth the budget, and researching it all alone costs months you don’t have.

Already settled and want a standing partner in the room? See Strategic Advisory on the same page.

Built for Any entrepreneur, investor, or family relocating to Bali, founder or not, budget from modest to premium, wants the move handled, not researched.
