Capital Raising

Capital for the companies building AI infrastructure.

More than capital. We bring builders, operators and growth companies the counterparties and resources that make a project financeable — bankable offtakers, established NVIDIA partners, access to power and leading AI datacentre EPC specialists — alongside equity and debt from structuring to close. We have access to capital via our vast network of investors.

Results, not words.

We specialise in complex, non-standard transactions and know the sector from power and sites to silicon, contracts and capital. A mandate is complete only when the capital is committed.

  • Capital access

    Access to capital via our vast network of investors, from global asset managers to family offices in the UK, the Middle East and Asia.

  • Bankable offtake

    Access to creditworthy offtakers whose capacity contracts lenders and investors will finance against.

  • NVIDIA ecosystem

    Established relationships with reputable NVIDIA partners for GPU supply, integration and deployment.

  • Power access

    Relationships that open access to secured and near-term power capacity — the scarcest input in the sector.

  • EPC expertise

    Leading AI datacentre EPC specialists to scope, cost and deliver the build behind every financing.

  • Complex situations

    Early-stage sites, first-of-a-kind structures, multi-party financings and time-critical closings are where we add most.

  • One partner, end to end

    Capital, offtake, power, EPC and technology partners, negotiation and closing — coordinated by one team, backed by the data behind Compute Terminal.

What we bring

  • Equity

    Seed to growth rounds, pre-IPO and strategic minority investments.

  • Project and infrastructure finance

    Construction and development finance, delayed-draw facilities and joint-venture capital for campuses.

  • Contract-backed and asset finance

    GPU- and lease-backed debt structured around offtake contracts and the creditworthiness behind them.

  • Structured and hybrid capital

    Convertibles, preferred equity and mezzanine for companies between rounds or ahead of a listing.

  • Strategic transactions

    Joint ventures, anchor-tenant and offtake partnerships, acquisitions and disposals.

  • Offtake and capacity contracts

    Introductions to bankable offtakers and structuring of the capacity agreements that underpin financing.

  • Technology and deployment partners

    Access to reputable NVIDIA partners for GPU procurement, system integration and deployment.

  • Power and sites

    Access to secured and near-term power and to sites with a credible path to energisation.

  • Engineering, procurement and construction

    Introductions to leading AI datacentre EPC specialists for design, cost estimates and delivery schedules lenders rely on.

  • Transaction readiness

    Capital plan, financial model, investor materials and data room prepared to institutional standard.

How we work

  1. 1 · Assess

    Fit, readiness and the right capital for the stage — an honest view before any mandate.

  2. 2 · Prepare

    Structure, model, materials and data room, with a timetable agreed up front.

  3. 3 · Engage

    Targeted outreach to equity investors, lenders and strategic partners matched to the opportunity.

  4. 4 · Close

    Term-sheet negotiation, diligence management and coordination through signing and funding.

Numbers talk.
