We are big believers in transformative innovation and the people who strive to change the world through it. Having built more than a few businesses, organizations and technologies, we've learned a few things:

-Vision, integrity and a relentless spirit are table stakes for success.

-Any strategy must be living, flexible and ever-evolving.

-Effectively communicating a clear, compelling (and authentic) story is the only way to truly elevate above the noise.

-An optimized operation is a never-ending opportunity and a worthy discipline.

-A high performance team is the absolute difference-maker to success.

Ask yourself - do these statements sound like your organization? Is there room for improvement?

Beneath these key success factors is also a seemingly infinite list of organizational needs, issues and opportunities that must be considered and addressed:

• Creating a world-class management team and an innovative, engaged and ethical organizational culture.
• Hiring the right talent at the right time.
• Deciding with whom to partner and go-to-market.
• Making an educated build vs. buy in product development, and its long-term implications.
• Implementing a sustainable (affordable) intellectual property (IP) strategy.
• Best practices in engaging a corporate law firm and legal specialists (i.e. IP, government, etc.)
• Employing financial analysis and forecasting to support growth and operational planning.
• Developing an effective marketing and communications strategy.
• Structuring and executing a successful capital raise (equity or debt).
• Negotiating mutually-beneficial contracts and agreements.
• Collaborating with a government as a partner or customer, including lobbying and advocacy.
• Global rollout of a product or service requiring in-country management and support.
• Capitalizing on M&A opportunities.
• Building, managing and evolving a Board.
• Exiting a business (sale or other liquidity event, merger or wind-down).
• And on and on and on...

Let our scar tissue, sleepless nights and moments of inspiration save you ground. As your operating partners, we will work to unlock your vision, energize your team and harness the untapped potential of your organization.
