Paul V. Weinstein & Assoc. - Technology Focused Investment Bank & Advisory Firm

A boutique technology focused advisory providing M&A, fundraising, and business development services. We help companies maximize their value via a battle-tested, full-stack approach developed through decades of experience. This framework is rooted in a deep understanding of how large organizations make decisions and how to influence that process. In Silicon Valley there are basically two ways of creating value; financial and strategic. Financial value is the stuff of business school and stock markets. It's about revenue, earnings, financial models and management theory. Strategic value, on the other hand has little to do with any of those things and almost everything to do with how a companies product and/or market position help or hinder another company's (usually a bigger one's) ability to be successful. This distinction is why a company with 5 people and no revenue can sell for a billion dollars while a company with 500 people and $100 million in revenue sells for a fraction of that. While the circumstances of each project vary, the underlying work we do remains the same. Using a repeatable, process driven framework, we help identify, connect with and win over the key stakeholders necessary for your company's success by understanding what the incentives and risks are for those stakeholders within that particular organization.
