In plain English
A detailed description of the company type most likely to become a high-value, long-retention customer. The foundation of any cross-border GTM.

How it shows up in practice
- 01
Reverse-engineer your best 10 current customers.

- 03
Segment ICPs by region; a China ICP rarely matches an EU ICP.
