Recognition

To originate exciting deals, sifting through quantity is the only way to guarantee quality. It comes in many forms, but key are the qualities of the founding team. Is there the ambition, the agility and the focus for this to become a great business? Recognised as an approachable and honourable name, off-market opportunities are both brought to and sought out by Cornelius James.

Relevance

Thoroughness in matching up opportunities to investors, and investors to founders, is how relevance is achieved. The selection process takes time. Time spent now saves you time, the ultimate goal. It’s important to look deeper, to see the true potential. By only presenting appropriate, interesting deals, relevant to your particular investment criteria, nobody’s time is wasted. When you hear from us, you know it’s going to be worth your while.

Realisation of potential

Once an opportunity has been recognised and placed before the relevant investor, the work of realising that potential begins. More than an introductory service, we can also apply action and energy to make investments flourish. By only supporting a handful of projects each year, a selective approach keeps the focus on those businesses with the most potential.
