In today’s ultra-competitive world, you can’t afford to stay still for long. You need to constantly be on the lookout for ways to do more with less. This often means joining forces with others to achieve greater returns. Wherever your venture is in its lifecycle, we can help guide you through the next critical transition.
Seed Funding
We have worked with many entrepreneurs to get their startups off the ground, and without fail the biggest challenge is steering the venture to a point of viability while working with extremely limited resources. We can use our experience in this area to offer:
- Development of business plan, go-to-market strategy, pitch deck
- Networking amongst target investor cohorts
- Due diligence and valuation
- Term sheets and negotiation
- Occasionally lead round with private syndicate
Virtual Team Building
The days of having an entire company - even if it is only a few folks - colocated in an office building are long gone. This presents a unique set of challenges to founders. We can help with:
- Searching and recruiting a world class team of co-founders
- Negotiating pre-launch equity and intellectual property agreements
- Establishing key partnerships with providers of outsourced tech services
Scaling Up
After a successful launch, many startups become complacent and only realize too late that they have not prepared for the next phase of growth. With our strong global connections, we can help you prepare for:
- International expansion, with key people and partners in key markets
- Financial structures and relationships that minimize your cost of capital and maximize ROI
- Robust infrastructure that allows for fast growth while protecting your assets
Exiting
Sooner or later, every startup reaches a stage where it is no longer a startup. There are many scenarios that can unfold, and we can help you navigate through them to determine whether to pursue:
- An IPO, ICO, or other form of offering
- A merger or acquisition, whether on the buy- or sell-side
- A management buyout or other form of succession
- Winding down in an orderly manner
