In a fast-changing environment, your time is precious. To make the most of your first meeting with us, we recommend reviewing the following questions. A clear understanding of these will help us provide you with better guidance.
Who are you? What is your project?
Before investing, we need to understand and believe in your project. To prepare for this first meeting, here is a non-exhaustive list of questions your presentation should address. Are you a start-up, scale-up, micro-enterprise, self-employed professional or cooperative? Has your company been operating for 3 weeks, 6 months or 10 years? What is your story? Who are your shareholders? Who is involved in this project with you? What makes your team strong?
What stage is your project at? Are your objectives realistic?
Creation, growth, innovation, international expansion, environmental transition, business transfer… Each stage of a company’s development corresponds to specific financing solutions. Each situation requires a feasibility analysis and a suitable financial structure. That is why it is essential to provide all relevant figures during the first meeting.
