We only win when you win.
Is this just consulting services? No, please note that we do not bill for services. These are offered as part of a mentoring and investment package to the startup in exchange for equity. We are not a consulting firm with hourly rates. We want to be a partner in your startup to help you be successful – this means we only win when you win.
As a startup, you encounter many challenges every day. There are so many questions and it is hard to know all the answers.
