Raising capital is a key milestone in a startup’s life. Startups have to deal with more risks than other companies because there is asymmetry between founders and investors. Also, many startups are very price-sensitive and prefer negotiating without advisors, which exposes them to substantial risks.
Dups holistic approach helps startups thrive by ensuring their value is correctly assessed and their growth is properly supported. We are typically involved in fundraisings of €500k+.

“As part of the development of our activities and the realization of a business plan to enable the company to break new ground, we turned to external investors. Deminor accompanied us in the realization of the partnership with the new investor: holding negotiation meetings, drafting contractual and legal documents… I particularly appreciated their availability, flexibility and professionalism that allowed us to complete this new stage quickly and effectively.”

“KYTOS is a university spin-off company which meant navigating complex issues regarding shareholder structure, financing and licensing negotiations. dups went above and beyond to guide us through this process. The team was quickly up to speed with our technology, business model, and the desires and concerns of our shareholders. What stood out was their diligence, sincere interest, and commitment to the success of our company. I’m sure this is the start of a long-lasting collaboration and would highly recommend dups.”

And as a bonus, there is no jargon or confusing steps with dups: everything is made crystal clear for you to understand the whole process. I would definitely recommend working with them, both to new entrepreneurs and to those with a track record. Just do it with dups!”

“Better alone than in bad company: the saying is (far too) often true for us entrepreneurs. However, if there is one subject to be dealt with when you raise capital, it is the governance with your investors and towards your founders. The dups team has the pragmatism to make sure you start on solid foundations.”
