Where should I start?

Hi all, I’m a UK-based founder building a B2B SaaS in the construction tech space. Our MVP is ready, but no traction yet. I want to sell in the US, raising from US investors makes the most sense. Am I being stupid thinking US investors would take me seriously as a UK founder? How do I even start finding and approaching US investors when I’m across the pond? If anyone has experience or advice for navigating this kind of situation, I’d love to hear it. I’m trying to figure out if this makes sense or if I’m just overcomplicating things. Thanks in advance!
