Advisory services

Creative thinking & growth consultancy

Business owners often know what the solution to the issues they face is but are not always able to implement the necessary actions. Furthermore the reasons for business owners wanting to sell their business are often not tied into their business performance. In many instances business owners are not looking to sell their business at the most attractive time. Invariably every engagement we undertake for our clients has an element of business performance improvement whether a requirement or simply a question of adding value.

Maximising business performance is critical to ensuring business owners have the best options available to them. Often the issues faced in a business result in decisions that might otherwise not be desirable. Our goal is to help our clients focus on the right strategy and to have a greater control over the decisions that they make so as to realise the greatest benefits be those financial or otherwise.

Corporate Finance

M&A, financing and investment planning

Business plan development, investment strategy, Whitepaper preparation, financial structuring, legal & regulatory planning, compliance process and management, tax and accounting framework, outreach strategy, as well as risk and data management issues associated with fundraising. Business owners will experience some kind of transaction during their life, whether driven by a desire for growth, the exit/entrance of shareholders, the development of the business or any number of factors requiring the realisation of shareholder value.

Our approach is first to understand shareholder personal goals, then the business goals and the strategy for achieving these objectives. Thereafter the most important factor is fit. Finding the right buyer or seller is as much about knowing a good opportunity when it comes to you as it is about targeting a carefully selected list of preferable suitors.

Coaching, Mentoring & Development

Maximising value potential

Businesses can only grow if people have the right incentives and rewards in place. Sometimes this leads to a need to create new ventures and start-ups that can attract new skills that can be motivated and held accountable against a very specific mandate. More often than not the need for new ventures is a result of new capabilities, new ways of working and new business models..

Set-up and development of new ventures and businesses; and Identification, development of intellectual property, fundraising, working with VC’s and PE firms (technology, data, content). Currently we provide mentoring to young entrepreneurs (including as part of the LSE Generate Accelerator Programme). We also act as business and life coach providing guidance to clients on their goals and helping them reach their full potential.
