After working with a leading boutique merchant banking group in the USA, I returned to Europe to assist the founder of a real estate, co-share, company to become a multi-award-winning company and the leader in its particular market place. After five years as acting chairman, that company is now well placed to continue its successful delivery of the very best, high end, accommodation to young professionals in south-west London.I have significant experience in assisting companies from start-up to circa $ 500 Million USD both in Europe and North America. Predominantly in banking and being part of the team that provides their funding to the next level. However, I am used to seeing and understanding their challenges and seeing their perspective such that I can also advise them as to how the money thinks, or what they should do to get to the money when asking investors to make a potential corporate investment. Asset and Capital Investments - ACI, is the latest addition to our family group of companies. ACI now has the very best established skills available to deal with and assist our clients with commercial and financial matters. We retain our ability to offer project and commercial funding advice including potential routes to market, via our extensive contacts and JV partners. For startups to fully established companies, ACI offers a full range of business incubation services to SME’s, their senior staff and mainboard, delivered by people who didn’t learn it all in books, but unlike most have the true hands-on experience of keeping the wolves at bay. We are able to offer primary funding for projects with a particular interest in Real Estate and Renewable Energy. My specialities: seeing the bigger picture, mentoring, maximising opportunities. Enabling and developing entrepreneurship and keeping those feet on the ground, without inhibiting the wealth creation, essential to any business.
