RAISING CAPITAL

Dr. Purdy assists young companies in raising capital. Dr. Purdy does not operate as a broker dealer and, as such, does not take a commission on funds raised.  Rather, Dr. Purdy has a number of great relationships with key partners in angel capital, strategic investor and institutional venture capital resources.

Dr. Purdy’s services to assist in raising capital include:

• Reviewing the company’s ‘pitch deck’ and recommending changes that will enable the company to present more favorably with investors.

• Doing ‘dry runs’ where the team presents to Dr. Purdy as if he were an investor to help the team present their story in a more favorable fashion. 

• Identifying prospective angel and/or institutional investors that might be interested in the startup as an investment opportunity.

• Making introductions to strategic investors that may be interested in establishing an early business relationship with the startup or, possibly, make an investment. 

• Making introductions to angels and venture capitalists so they can consider investing in the startup.

Dr. Purdy works via a monthly retainer of a project basis to assist companies in preparing for and getting introductions to sources of capital to help young companies grow.
