What we do
Investments, Startups & Scale-ups
We help investors and growth companies identify material governance, regulatory, IP, data and technology risks before and after investment.
When organisations call us
- A company prepares for a financing round and wants to find its own red flags first.
- An investor needs a cross-cutting risk screen before committing to full due diligence.
- The data room does not exist — or answers provoke more questions than they close.
- Enterprise or regulated clients arrive faster than compliance, governance and security maturity.
- After closing, findings must become a plan: owners, sequence, evidence.
Questions we help answer
- Which risks are material enough to change valuation, structure or the decision itself?
- Is the company’s story consistent with its documents — IP, data, contracts, governance?
- What must be fixed before the term sheet, and what can be a closing condition?
- How do we oversee portfolio exposure without drowning founders in reporting?
How we can support
- Readiness review — governance, IP, data, AI, compliance and technology, from the investor’s chair.
- Red-flag screen — fast, structured, materiality-driven; a basis for deciding on full DD.
- Due-diligence support — specialist workstreams alongside legal and financial advisers.
- Data-room design — index, evidence standards and Q&A discipline.
- 100-day plan — post-investment remediation with owners, milestones and closure evidence.
- Portfolio oversight — a proportionate reporting rhythm for investors.
