answers before you submit
Use this section to understand scope, role, review logic, and what makes a submission ready for a serious introduction process.
What exactly is your role in the investment process?
I operate as a strategic business introducer and capital connector. My role is to review alignment, structure the
opportunity context, and facilitate targeted introductions between businesses and capital partners when there is a credible fit.
Do you represent investors or companies?
I work independently. My focus is strategic alignment — matching opportunities to the right investor profiles and mandates.
Introductions are made when both sides show a clear fit in strategy, expectations, and timeline.
Are you a financial broker or licensed intermediary?
No. I am not a broker or licensed financial intermediary. I provide strategic, relationship-driven introductions and
clarity support. All investment decisions and transactions are conducted directly between the parties involved.
What kind of businesses are suitable for introductions?
Businesses that demonstrate a scalable model, credible traction or clear operational progress, disciplined execution,
and a well-defined capital need tied to measurable growth milestones.
Do you work with early-stage startups?
In most cases, I prioritize opportunities that are beyond the idea stage. Early-stage projects may be considered
only when there is strong evidence of execution capability, market validation, and a clear path to scalability.
What capital range do you typically work with?
Most opportunities I review fall within the €500K–€20M range, depending on sector, stage, structure, and investor mandate.
Larger transactions may be considered where strategic fit is strong.
Do you guarantee funding or investor interest?
No. Funding is never guaranteed. Introductions depend on alignment and investor appetite. Final decisions are made solely
by investors after their own independent evaluation.
How do you handle confidentiality and NDAs?
I treat submissions professionally and confidentially. For the initial review, avoid sharing highly sensitive proprietary
details. If a later-stage discussion requires an NDA, it can be arranged directly between the parties.
How are opportunities screened before introductions?
I review business model logic, scalability, positioning, traction signals, and capital readiness. I also evaluate whether the
opportunity can be communicated with clarity and credibility to the right capital partner.
Do you provide mass deal flow to investors?
No. I focus on selective, targeted introductions based on mandate alignment. The objective is quality and strategic fit,
not volume.
Do you conduct due diligence?
I do not provide formal due diligence services. Investors and buyers are responsible for their own verification, legal,
financial, and operational due diligence before making any decision.
Do you charge upfront fees to submit a project?
No. I do not operate a pay-to-pitch model. Submissions are reviewed based on strategic fit. Separate advisory work
(e.g., investor readiness or positioning) can be discussed only if needed and mutually agreed.
Do you take success fees or commissions?
Any commercial terms, if applicable, are discussed separately depending on the nature of engagement and the structure
of the opportunity. My primary focus is strategic alignment and relationship-driven introductions.
How long does the review process take?
Initial reviews typically take several days depending on volume and completeness of the submission. If the opportunity
aligns with relevant mandates, you will be contacted for the next stage.
Will I receive feedback if my submission is not selected?
Due to volume, individual feedback may not always be possible. If there is strong alignment and a clear next step,
I will reach out directly.
What increases the chance of a successful introduction?
Clear strategy, disciplined execution, credible traction signals, realistic capital logic, and professional communication.
Strong submissions are concise, structured, and evidence-driven.
Can you help refine our pitch or growth strategy before introductions?
Yes — as a separate advisory engagement when deeper work is required. In some cases, positioning, growth architecture,
or investor readiness improvements are necessary before an introduction becomes productive.
No capital introduction works without prior readiness. Investors typically evaluate narrative clarity, financial structure,
and risk signals before engaging in meaningful discussions. If your company is still preparing for fundraising, start with
capital readiness before seeking introductions.
