Within three months of starting, it expanded its operations to the U.S. market. Initially, its services were broad, but around 2021, it decided to focus exclusively on health technology, working with startups and hospitals in the United States.  Soon after, Light-it opened an office in Florida, United States, and then established a presence in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 2023. Later, it expanded again by opening an office in New York City, United States, while maintaining its headquarters in Montevideo, Uruguay.[1][2]
