Please conduct a market feasibility assessment analyzing TAM/SAM/SOM for each region, competitive landscape with 5+ competitors per market, regulatory compliance requirements, localization needs, and provide a prioritized recommendation with top 10 expansion risks and mitigation strategies. Focus on the SMB segment (10-500 employees) that we currently serve successfully in the US.
