Capital Formation for disruptive companies building the sustainable economy

Challenge

The greatest challenge facing entrepreneurs and emerging fund managers is the inability to fnd a capital solution, effectively and effciently. On average, it can take 18-36 months to fnd investments. This is far too long to keep a team together. Most entrepreneurs don’t have the appropriate network or money to hire advisors, for fundraising and some regulatory issues. Intermediaries are constantly asked to work on commission, which is impossible due to long period of time fund raising takes, under the present methods. With no income coming in, it is not possible for these advisors to carry out the task at hand. The same is especially true for fund raising for funds
