Focus
Breweries once generated their own electricity. It never made the beer taste better. A capital raise is your power plant: essential, but not where you win. We run the process, so your hours go to what makes your deal better, and your investor relationships stay yours.
Distance
The investor across the table becomes your partner, often on your board. We run the competitive process and carry the hard conversations, so you can push on terms without pushing your future partner.

Who we work with
| Who | Independent sponsors, financial entrepreneurs and family owners operating without a committed fund |
| Deal size | Middle-market companies, generally $20–150M of enterprise value |
| Capital | Senior and unitranche debt, junior capital, preferred and common equity, co-invest |
| Sectors | We operate across most sectors of the U.S. economy. Our capital advisory work focuses on established companies, so we generally avoid early-stage companies, biotech, and specialized industries such as oil and gas |
| Timing | Start pre-LOI for a read on market receptivity; outreach to institutional investors typically begins after the LOI. The Brain Trust is available anytime. |
| What we don't do | We don't raise committed funds, and we don't run sell-side processes |
