For Investors

Too often, entrepreneurs have paid too high a price for the investment they managed to bring into their company.  Often, they have diluted their ownership to a fraction of what they could have otherwise retained and, along the way, have given away most if not all their rights to their intellectual property.  This is a tragic yet preventable mistake.

Investment Readiness Services is all about keeping your intellectual property (IP) and structuring your company in a way that preserves your ownership of your IP while leveraging its market value with investors.  Investors respect smart businesses and gain much more confidence about placing funding with your company when they see that ‘investor readiness’ is demonstrated from the start.

Our common is interest is to solve real problems by combining innovation and execution to create world class organizations.

We fundamentally believe that proven technology and best in class management, combined with global networks, can create significant value and effectively address global challenges across Alberta’s sectors.

Our unique proposition revolves around intangible assets – an area of keen interest by the Chartered Professional Accountants of Canada.  Recognizing the potential for value creation, the CPA of Canada is working with us to demonstrate the strategic relevance of intangible assets to the future of finance and innovation in the country.

We are already aligned with a financial institution – River City Credit Union – that believes there is a distinct role for new financial solutions tied  to intangible assets and their development which can support entrepreneurs.

Intangible Assets are still not well-understood for the value they can generate for a company.  Often, your investment in your idea can reflect a whole suite of intangible assets but, often, much of this is simply written off as expenses incurred during the development of your idea. This lack of understanding of the effective application of intangible assets is one of the greatest limiting barriers to a company’s financial success.  At TechInvest, we help identify your Intangible Assets, generate a value for them and put them on your balance sheet based on international accounting standards (IAS-38).

Once your Intangible Assets are identified and placed on your balance sheet, TechInvest designs the best corporate structure for taking your idea to market, this includes bringing the right levels of investment to the table at every stage of your company’s development.
