We help you make smart choices
We’ve been around almost since sustainability became a thing. We’ve haven’t seen it all, but we’ve seen a lot, and we try to share that experience with you.
More than anything else, we help clients develop a clear-eyed view of what they have, what they need, what it’s worth and who it’s worth it to.
We believe that a successful company needs adequate (but not excessive) capital, paying customers, the right people and the right exit strategy.
What we do:
We turbocharge client success by advising management teams on business growth and strategy, and investors to relevant opportunities
We force clear assessments of your company’s opportunities and risks based on decades of experience
We connect clients to potential investors, partners, board members and service providers
We help introduce and facilitate pilot projects and joint ventures with the right partners
We position clients properly to participate in government programs and interpret and provide insight on implications of government policy on the business
What we don’t do:
We aren’t bankers and we’re not brokers, so although we can and will introduce you to potential investors, we don’t run formal capital raises. We’re also not direct investors ourselves.
Because we work directly with - and for - founders and senior executives, we don’t join boards of directors. Board members have important and wide-ranging obligations to all shareholders. Exactly as it should be. Our work focuses on the business decisions executives need to be make.
In much the same vein, we don’t take operating roles at our clients.
And, for obvious reasons, we also don’t weigh in on, or sign off on, our client’s tax returns.
