Whether you’re looking to grow, restructure, or finance an acquisition—at some point every entrepreneur faces the question: “How do we fund this?”
Traditional bank loans rarely provide the full answer. That’s why Buttonwood helps you build a smart and balanced financing mix tailored to your ambitions and your reality.
Beyond the bank: your tailor-made financing mix
The financing landscape is broader than ever. Think of:
Win-win loans
Subsidies
Short- and long-term financing
Subordinated loans
Private investors with strategic added value
Venture capitalists and family funds
Factoring, leasing, or crowdfunding as complementary options
Buttonwood guides you through this complex ecosystem, each with its own rules and requirements. We bring clarity to your capital journey and ensure you’re seated at the right table with the right partners.
We offer one-stop-shop support—from analysis to negotiations and follow-up.
Our approach
ONE
Analysis of your capital needs
We begin with a thorough analysis of your company structure and financing project. We evaluate your current financial situation and define how much capital is truly needed, on what timeline, and for which purpose. This gives us a clear picture of your company’s capital or financing requirements.
TWO
Evaluation and explanation of your financing options
Based on your profile, risk tolerance, and independence goals, we propose a suitable financing mix. We offer clear explanations of each option so you can make informed decisions with confidence.
THREE
Case preparation and strategic financing advice
We make sure your case is rock solid. By valuing your company (or performing a valuation), we highlight your strongest assets. We combine experience in both traditional and alternative financing and provide in-house financial and legal expertise.
FOUR
Support during negotiations
We assist you in discussions with banks, investors, or public bodies. We provide a strong company pitch deck (investment memorandum) and teaser (investment proposition), and advise you on the legal framework: NDAs, letters of intent, or investment contracts.
Even after the financing round is closed, we stay involved through periodic reporting, advisory boards, and performance analysis.
