Private equity / pre-IPO
At a glance
Through Strand Ventures, Strand Hanson is able to advise and invest in early stage companies and larger private companies, primarily in the natural resources, agriculture, energy, technology, healthcare, and chemical sectors.
Strand Hanson’s advisory team are introduced to a significant number of businesses each year looking for growth capital, which are not necessarily yet at a stage to undertake a stock market listing and therefore more suited to private equity and pre-IPO funding.
Strand Ventures has been established to identify the best of these companies to advise and source funds ranging from £5 million to £100+ million, both debt and equity, to allow these companies to grow and prosper.
“Raising the right finance for earlier-stage businesses can have a significant influence on whether they achieve their longer term aspirations.”
