Fundraising and Investing
We love helping companies grow and when it’s time to raise funds, we can help. We connect founders and CEOs to potential investors, and we also know how to scout for the right fit. We give angel investors an insider's look at emerging startups from Central and Eastern Europe and the companies we’re involved with in New York City. Mary is a resource, mentor and leader in the startup scene on the ground in Budapest where we are always looking for rising stars. Lannie is strategically based in NYC where lies the hub of our investor and professional network.
- We cherish our friendships and business relationships - that’s why we take them seriously.
- We go to lengths not to exploit trusted relationships by getting too spammy or needy. But when we know of a startup looking for an advisor or investor, and we know an investor who could be a good fit, we ask permission and make introductions.
- This simple networking effect has led to many happy investors and funded companies.
- Fundraising is not easy. We’ve been at it for more than 10 years for various companies from several industries.
- If we think we can help you, we will. If your situation requires advisors with a different skill set or network, we will be honest about that upfront and help you find the next person you should talk to.
