The overall objective of the ESCALADE project is to conceive a well-tested model for scaling services that will provide specific and targeted support for deep-tech companies in reaching the scale-up stage and enable them to structure and negotiate optimal and mutually beneficial investment deals. 

This project demonstrates how the experience and expertise of the team along the typical value chain of deep tech companies can provide specific and targeted support for companies reaching the scale-up stage and enable them to structure and negotiate optimal valuation from a like-minded strategic investor. 

In order to enable these companies to make informed investment decisions and to adapt to changing markets and investment climates, the team provide a three-stages assessment plan and thorough analysis of their current financial requirements and support them to develop a sound investment strategy. 

The team understands the buy-side psyche when evaluating investment opportunities, and we identify the real potential of the business for crafting the content into a convincing narrative and watertight financial model for tech and other companies to win in their funding rounds.

The execution of this project will not only enable deep tech companies to become sustainable global leaders but also it will develop best practices to groom several other businesses, impact the number and value of investment deals and develop huge repository and intelligence of processes and procedures required to drive successful ventures. With this know-how, it will be possible to support innovative companies with disruption potential well beyond the lifetime of the project.
