T&P Ventures prepares and refines business plans for growing companies in the communications, IT, technology and related sectors. We prepare business plans for a variety of purposes, including for internal needs, raising equity finance, raising debt finance, spin-outs, joint ventures and IPOs.

We assist you with every aspect of the planning process, including carrying out market and industry analysis, business modelling, and preparing financial projections. We use our broad business experience to ensure that plans make sense and are grounded in reality.

Most of the plans we prepare are used for raising venture finance. Although just about anyone can write a business plan, very few are taken seriously by professional investors. Venture capital investors typically invest in less than 1% of the companies that approach them. Most reject over 90% of the opportunities they see after little more than a cursory review of the business plan. Few if any will tell you the true reasons why your proposition has been rejected.

Whether you are approaching angel investors, venture capital firms or alternative investors, you only have one chance to make a favourable impression. Most investors will not look at a proposition twice. Nor will they usually be interested in a proposition that has been “shopped” around the market. Unless you have a strong proposition and a professionally-prepared business plan, you are likely to damage your prospects of obtaining funding and waste a considerable amount of management time and effort.

We improve your chances of raising investment and help you to obtain a better valuation for your business by ensuring that your business plan is prepared professionally and that it articulates the investment opportunity clearly and concisely.

A thoroughly prepared business plan can help you jump start your preparation for an IPO or market listing and help you to prepare for life as a publicly quoted company. When you approach investment banks and other advisors, one of the first things they will ask for is a business plan and a presentation of the business. If you are unprepared, or your business plan is poorly prepared, they are unlikely to take you on as clients.

At T&P Ventures, we help to prepare your company for IPO and ensure that you have a robust business plan before starting the process. We help you to articulate your investment case more clearly, help you obtain a better valuation for your company, and save you time and money during the IPO process. We also prepare you for facing investors’ questions and dealing with the issues that they are likely to raise.

If you already have a business plan, we would be pleased to review it for you:
