Deeptech,raised properly
Hard science, long horizons and technical risk, presented so a generalist committee can underwrite what a specialist already understands.
What is different about raising in deeptech
Deeptech raises are won by making technical risk legible: what is proven, what is next, and what each milestone costs.
Grant income, Innovate UK support and EIS or SEIS eligibility change the shape of the round and should be positioned early, not disclosed late.
IP ownership, assignment from founders and any university arrangement is the first thing diligence pulls.
The engine behind the raise
Capital types we most often work across here: Venture capital, Grant matched equity, EIS and SEIS.
- Technology readiness narrative mapped to funding milestones and capital required per stage
- IP and assignment pack assembled before diligence asks for it
- EIS and SEIS advance assurance support where the company qualifies
- Investor audience segmented into technical specialists and generalist co-investors
- Investment memorandum written so a non-specialist committee can hold its own
The questions capital will ask
If you cannot answer these with evidence in the data room, the process stalls at week two.
- What is your technology readiness level, and what does the next level cost and take?
- Is the IP fully assigned to the company, and are there university or grant encumbrances?
- Do you qualify for EIS or SEIS, and do you hold advance assurance?
- Which milestones does this round buy, and what does the next round require?
