Thesis development

We conduct stakeholder interviews, collate market insights, and align your strategic priorities to develop an investment thesis.

 
Vendor scouting & screening

We decide on opportunity focus areas and use our unique innovation network to develop an initial list of target vendors.

Prioritisation & shortlisting

We create KPIs and an assessment matrix to assist in developing a vendor shortlist, create high-level summaries, and conduct blind engagements to gain additional vendor insight and gauge interest.

Prospect assessment

We assess the commercial circumstances of the investment, mapping vendor capabilities and evaluating potential risks.

 
Vendor discussions

We negotiate heads of terms with potential vendors and provide support throughout the agreement process.

Full due diligence

We agree contract terms with stakeholders to gather required data and conduct in-depth analysis. We’ll then identify gaps and quality issues, conducting thorough stakeholder interviews to examine risks and define performance forecasts.

 
Reporting & recommendations

We’ll finalise a complete due diligence document inclusive of all evaluations, findings and scoring, using these findings to provide investment recommendations.
