ABOUT

WHAT DO WE DO

Established in 2012 here in Lyon FRANCE Keating International (KI) is a specialized corporate finance and advisory firm that provides fundraising, go-to-market and M&A services to early stage technology companies.

WHAT IS THE CHALLENGE

The early stage of a technology company’s journey through the Technology Adoption Life Cycle (TALC) is when it seeks to “cross the chasm” in order to become the dominant player or “gorilla” in its initial target market.

If successful, this is where 80% of the value of a technology company is created in the market.

To meet this challenge everything must be done in such a way that it will accelerate the growth and increase the value of an early stage technology company in less time and at a lower cost.

HOW WE SUPPORT OUR CLIENTS IN MEETING THE CHALLENGE

At KI we provide our early stage technology company clients with fundraising, go-to-market and M&A services which are designed and optimized to accelerate their growth and increase their value in less time and at a lower cost.

To do this at KI we follow a proprietary problem-oriented and research-driven approach in designing and executing our fundraising, go-to-market and M&A services which provides us with the necessary financial, operating and market insights required to meet this goal.

HOW DO WE MEET THIS CHALLENGE FOR OUR CLIENTS ON A CONSISTENT BASIS

With each of our early stage technology company clients at KI we proceed in a very disciplined and determined manner that adheres to a concise and productive set of operating principles which are as follows:

• radical open-mindedness,

• simplicity,

• confidentiality,

• repetition,

• security/confidentiality,

• surprise,

• speed; and,

• purpose.
