Ventureahead.com specializes in raising venture capital for businesses at all stages of growth. Although our primary focus is on technology businesses, we can raise venture capital for deserving businesses in all industry sectors.

 

We guide the businesses at every stage of raising capital and assist in the preparation and review of the complete set of documentation to raise venture capital,viz. business plans, marketing plans, business valuations, financial forecasts, legal contracts, etc. Our complete range of services for raising venture capital include:

 

Business plan - we assist our clients in preparing focussed business plans, which considerably increases the chances of raising venture capital for their businesses. If the client has already prepared a business plan, we do a detailed review through our proprietary process to ensure that all essential elements required for raising venture capital are included and appropriately emphasized.

 

Selection of the target VC - based on the business variables (funds required, stage of business, industry, location of business, use of funds, valuation of business, etc.) we select and route the business plan or executive summary to the investors who are looking for such opportunities. Remember, only 1% of the business plans that the VCs receive actually get funded. Therefore it is important that your business plan is in the right place at the right time; and we can play an important role in doing this.

 

Valuation of the business - valuation of the business that is raising capital is required before staring discussions with VCs. As the VCs are going to invest money in the business by buying a part of equity of the company, they have to know how much it is going to cost to buy the requisite equity stake in your company. We consider all the contemporary valuation metrics, along with the traditional valuation wisdom, in arriving at the valuation which is more likely to stand up to the scrutiny of the VCs.

 

Deal structuring & negotiation - we structure the entire VC funding transaction and negotiate the funding terms and conditions, exits, restrictions on management and VC control rights, management employment contracts, non-compete agreements etc., in a manner which ensures that the interests of our clients are adequately protected.

 

Complete legal documentation - we review or prepare the complete set of the legal documentation that is required for the infusion of venture capital in the business.
