After an investment has been agreed to and made, we allow for the necessary time for the technology's development. We understand the dangers of a pre-mature approach of customers but will ensure a strict focus so that the company never loses sight of the market.
TechnoStart will be represented on the advisory or supervisory board of its portfolio companies and will help to identify and recruit additional board members with relevant experience and competence. Offering co-operation well beyond the early months is as important as supplying the necessary funds. We are not only involved in the establishment of an organisation and the development of financial strategies, but in all aspects determining the structure and pace of the company's development; in particular we assist in recruitment and strategies for business development and marketing.
We are well experienced in the huge tasks faced when building a company from conception, virtually from scratch, through various rounds of structuring, team building and financing. Therefore, at least one member of our team will for quite some time almost fully dedicate him- or herself to the project, and organise further input from other members of the TechnoStart team. In order to avoid any misunderstanding, it is important to stress that we act as co-entrepreneurs: we are not the entrepreneur, who is ultimately responsible for top-quality performance. We expect equally high standards of performance from our entrepreneurs as from ourselves.
