FAQ's
Who are the investors you work with?
Our investor network includes family offices, private equity firms, and experienced high-net-worth individuals. Each partner is selected for strategic fit, track record, and reputation — not just capital availability. These investors typically have a long-term outlook, are comfortable with founder continuity, and prioritise legacy alongside return.
How do we decide which investors see my business?
We tailor investor selection to each founder’s objectives. Before any outreach begins, we define what “the right partner” looks like — considering your desired role post-exit, cultural fit, sector experience, and preferred transaction structure. Only pre-qualified investors who match those criteria are introduced. We never broadcast or circulate your business details broadly.
Is the process confidential?
We tailor investor selection to each founder’s objectives. Before any outreach begins, we define what “the right partner” looks like — confidentiality is central to our process. Every engagement begins with a mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement, and no details are shared externally without your explicit consent. We conduct all communications discreetly, ensuring your staff, customers, and competitors remain completely unaware of any potential sale until you are ready.ng your desired role post-exit, cultural fit, sector experience, and preferred transaction structure. Only pre-qualified investors who match those criteria are introduced. We never broadcast or circulate your business details broadly.
Will I lose control once I start the process?
No. You remain in control at every stage. You choose which investors we approach, who you meet, and whether you accept any offer. We advise, guide, and negotiate on your behalf — but no decision is made without your approval. Our role is to create high-quality options, not pressure.
How long does the process usually take?
While every transaction differs, our framework is designed for efficiency. From initial diagnostic to signed heads of terms typically takes 45–90 days, depending on complexity, data readiness, and deal structure. We prioritise speed without compromising discretion or value — and maintain momentum throughout the process.
What types of businesses do you work with?
We specialise in profitable, founder-led UK businesses — Our focus sectors include B2B services, technology, manufacturing, and specialist industries with recurring or contracted revenue. We partner with businesses that are stable, cash-generative, and ready for the next stage of growth with the right investor.
