Clear stories, great conversations, and lasting investor relationships. Investors don't read decks. They flick through them in 30 seconds. Your deck's only job is to earn a second conversation with someone who can move the needle. That's it. Once you accept that, this gets simpler. I've helped 400+ founders raise billions — from a16z, Y Combinator, Tiger Global and hundreds of serious investors you haven't heard of. I don't just build decks. I find the story your investors need to hear, and I make it impossible to ignore. My do-with-you process results in clear stories and confident conversations that lead to lasting investor relationships. 🎯 "After just over a year of business, we are cash flow positive and 100% on fire....Hoping we can grab a few minutes of your time as we are looking to update our deck." Pitch Gym client, February 2026 I specialise in helping clients with complex propositions have great first dates with potential investors. I'll help you make them feel smart, ask great questions and get into long-term relationships with your venture. "The clarity made complex information immediately accessible to our supporters. Arthur's collaborative approach meant we could update materials ourselves as our campaign evolved." - UK institutional property acquisition, £2.5M raise A standard project involves three calls, two drafts and a final fully-designed deck over two weeks. Accelerated and more relaxed timelines are possible. I work across Energy, AI Compute, Tech, Pharma, Healthcare, Real Estate, Manufacturing and Defense. You'll get most out of working with me if you have established traction or prior experience. My clients have raised from a16z, Chanel, Red Bull, Kaiser Permanente, Sequoia, Y Combinator, Tiger Global, US Dept of Defense, Zoom Ventures, Barclays Eagle Labs, Alibaba Group, HSBC, San Francisco Equity Partners and many serious investors you haven't heard of. They've been acquired by Alliance Pharma, Corsearch and Ziff. First step: check out my video. If it sounds like a fit, send me a note.

I help businesses turn messy financials and scattered business data into clear investor stories, institutional-grade financial models, investor-ready fundraising stories and confident strategic decisions. I am an experienced private equity professional who has worked on 20+ M&A and equity transactions, building financial models, preparing fundraising materials, and conducting due diligence to support sound investment decisions. Having worked from the investor side, I understand what investors look for, question, and expect during fundraising processes.

Typical projects I support include: • Investor-ready financial models for VC fundraising (3-statement models, forecasts, scenario analysis) • Fundraising preparation and support (financials, investor materials, data rooms, investor reach-out) • Valuation analysis (DCF, comparables, transaction multiples) • Investment analysis and due diligence • Strategic financial analysis and transaction support • End-to-end transaction execution If you are preparing for fundraising, evaluating an investment opportunity, making an important financial or strategic decision, or need a robust financial model, I would be happy to discuss your project.
