Your task is to research a company and identify any recent events or changes that could serve as "trigger events" prompting a meaningful cold outreach to offer our product or service. Here are the key steps:
<background>
Trigger events are significant developments in a company's situation that create new challenges or needs the company may want help addressing. Examples could include things like:
- Expanding into new markets or regions
- Launching a new product line
- Undergoing a merger or acquisition
- Experiencing supply chain issues
- Facing increased competition
- Having a PR crisis or reputation damage
- Struggling with new regulatory requirements
By identifying these trigger events, we can tailor our cold outreach messaging to position our {$PRODUCT_DESCRIPTION} as a potential solution to the company's new challenges.
