Advisory

Senior support for decisions that cut across strategy, capital and execution.

We take on a limited number of assignments where direct senior involvement and cross-disciplinary experience can bring independent insight, practical judgement and a clearer path to action.

Companies & Founders

Navigate growth without separating strategy from finance and execution.

We support founders, boards and management teams at moments when a business model, financing plan and operating priorities need to align.

When we help

A financing, strategic transaction or new phase of growth is approaching
The company needs senior financial or strategic capacity without a permanent hire
International expansion requires sharper market choices and partnerships
Governance, KPIs or the operating model need to catch up with growth
AI initiatives need clearer priorities, measurable value and a path to scale

Typical work

Corporate and growth strategy
Financial planning, modelling and capital strategy
Investor readiness and transaction preparation
International market entry and partnerships
Operating model, governance and performance management
AI-to-Impact: use-case prioritisation, workflow redesign and value realisation
Fractional, interim or retained executive support

Investors & Corporate Ventures

Bring an operator’s perspective to investment and portfolio decisions.

We help investment funds, venture studios and corporate venture teams test assumptions, understand complex technologies and translate strategic intent into practical value-creation plans.

When we help

An investment opportunity requires commercial, strategic or technology assessment
A portfolio company needs experienced operating or board-level support
A corporate technology or venture has reached a strategic crossroads
A transaction requires an independent bridge between management and investors

Typical work

Investment themes and opportunity assessment
Commercial, strategic and technology due diligence
Portfolio-company strategy and value creation
Board, governance and management support
Corporate venture reviews, carve-outs and spin-outs
Transaction preparation and post-investment oversight

Institutions & Development Finance

Design climate and energy interventions that can mobilise private capital.

We combine development-finance experience with a private-sector perspective to structure programmes that are investable, implementable and grounded in market realities.

When we help

A climate or energy programme needs a credible investment and delivery model
Private-sector participation has been difficult to mobilise
A market, policy or institutional assessment must lead to executable recommendations
Public, development and commercial stakeholders need a common structure

Typical work

Climate and energy investment programmes
Project, fund and financing structures
Market, policy and institutional assessments
Private-sector mobilisation and investor engagement
Renewable-energy and energy-efficiency initiatives
Implementation support in emerging and cross-border markets

Ways to work together

A format matched to the decision—not a standard consulting package.

Assignments are scoped around the value of direct senior involvement and can evolve as the situation becomes clearer.

Defined project

A focused diagnostic, strategy, financial model, diligence or transaction workstream with agreed outputs and timing.

Retained or on-call advice

Direct access for management sparring, decision support, document review and follow-through as priorities evolve.

Fractional or interim mandate

Embedded senior capacity for a transition, financing, scaling phase or temporary leadership requirement.

Portfolio or board support

Ongoing strategic, governance and value-creation support for investors, boards and portfolio management teams.
