We are an impact investment office located in Madrid, Spain, dedicated to assisting European and African climate tech startups in securing investment. Our focus lies in supporting companies seeking to raise funds ranging from €500k to €5m, with our optimal range being between €1m and €2m.**

We do 2 things:

  1. We build your dataroom (monthly retainer) to be ready for due diligence
  2. We connect you to interested investors (success fee).

As we are currently in the process of establishing our first fund (€25m dedicated to climate-focused initiatives), we work with companies during their ongoing fundraising rounds. This allows us to potentially provide follow-on investments once our fund becomes active.

Getting Started

Operating at the intersection of venture capitalists, investors, and founders seeking their next funding round, our aim is to accelerate the process of making your company investment-ready and minimise the time investors spend evaluating your business.

We acknowledge that securing investment requires dedicated effort from your key employees, often becoming a full-time commitment. We make this process easier.

Our intention

To take some of that work off your hands and streamline the process for you to be connected to the right kind of investors.

Our purpose

To prepare your business for due diligence & investment. And to facilitate connections with suitable and interested investors.

To achieve this, we need to thoroughly understand your business's DNA, including stakeholders, product, and market. This understanding ensures a solid foundation and enables us to assist you in identifying the appropriate investor and investment opportunities.

What you can expect

<aside> 📝 The general process

We spend about 3 - 6 months working with you and your team to prepare for the round:

  1. Building the dataroom and preparing all the docs needed for the raise. We will build whatever you don’t have (see the list of docs below).
  2. Investor outreach, based on the round’s needs we will connect with investors from within our network and/or find more suitable ones. We connect the interested investors to you. </aside>

🗃 We build your dataroom

Our core service is to build your dataroom so that all your key documents are ready for when your potential investors conduct their due diligence. The documents include; incorporation, legal agreements, contracts, IP or patents, finances, HR documents, cap table, product planning and strategic plans and an investment memo.

The services for this allow us to create all the documents and range from co-creating a long-term plan with the founders, to creating financial models and doing an evaluation, to preparing for investor meetings and term sheets.

Documents that we create:

  1. Financial model: we take your finances in whichever condition they are currently in and build a VC- friendly financial model
  2. Valuation: based on the financial model and a third-party valuation platform, we determine an accurate valuation that you can defend confidently
  3. Cap Table: breakdown of people and ownership
  4. GTM strategy: a breakdown of your sales plan and how you will reach the projected revenue targets
  5. Key metrics: depending on your business model, the finances and the GTM strategy, we create a summary of the key metrics that form the key indicators of your businesses financial lifeline
  6. Additional docs: impact thesis, market analysis, investment trends.

Here is the full detailed breakdown of dataroom activities

🤝 We do investor outreach (3-7% success fee)

Once we have a deeper understanding of the business and investment needs and we have prepared the outreach docs (investment memo) we can start scouting and connecting with potential investors. We do additional research for VCs to make sure that we find once that match your investment requirements and that your company is a fit for their portfolio and investment stage.

We have an existing network of investors (continuously growing) that is made up of:

The outreach process

We compile a list of investors on Airtable, it will include any investors that you have been in contact with to avoid cross over. On the Airtable you are able to see the status of the outreach, who has been contacted and their response. We communicate to investors and share your investment memo. We hand the interested investors over to you to ‘close the deal’. Once there is a commitment from an investor, we support you through the transaction process.

<aside> 🎯 Process

‘’Stuart was immediately able to put his finger on the weak spot in our story, and asked many of the questions that were asked by the investors as well. This was particularly important to us, as other consultants we worked with were more geared more towards supporting earlier stage companies and therefore less experienced with how the investors respond to companies at a more mature stage.’’ Co-Founder, Xeltis
