No upfront fees. No retainers.
We are compensated only when your funding settles — aligning our incentives with your success.
Every mandate follows the same four stages. One team stays with you throughout.
1. Assess
We review your technology, IP and freedom-to-operate, team, financing and market. We engage only where we identify a credible path to success.
2. Build
We write the application as an investment case: technical work plan, business plan, financial model, impact and risk analysis.
3. Defend
We prepare your team for the jury: pitch, Q&A rehearsals and every number stress-tested before you enter the room.
4. Close
For equity and debt, we support you through due diligence, term-sheet negotiation and contracting, until the funds arrive.
