Investing in new or expanding companies, especially in technology environments, always carries a degree of risk for the investor, no matter how careful the due diligence phase was. One of the key sources of risk is the ability of the fledgling management team within the investment target to execute on the original idea and turn it into a commercial success. ASL recognises this and can work together with the investor to implement robust processes and systems within the target enterprise and bring our extensive management experience to the business. In this way a huge amount of risk is removed from the investment opportunity, especially if we are involved in the business commercialisation, and time to revenue can be predicted much more accurately. ASL is prepared to look at creative funding options in conjunction with investors, including equity sharing, in order to reduce up-front cash requirements and reduce cash 'burn-rates' via tight control of the enterprise.
ASL can work across all aspects of your organisation. Whilst we are delighted to work in specific areas as required by our clients, we believe that the most value can also be obtained by offering our customer tailored complete solutions to address their unique needs. ASL always strives to be a genuine partner to your organisation and our aim is to be your trusted business advisor at all times.
