Our philosophy and scope of activities
Helix Ventures acts as an investor or an advisor:
- Investing activity (pre-IPO, special situations private and public company investing, to a lesser extent early stage investing) concentrates on a broadly defined technology and business services space
- Advisory services in the area of selected investment banking services (Corporate Finance, M&A, public share issues and private placements) and strategic consulting
Main differentiator of Helix Ventures - as an investor and advisor - is our unrelenting focus on the owners' perspective and shareholders' value (an approach commonly defined as Value Based Management). We strongly believe in the active, positive role financial investors can play in the governance processes of both public and private companies. We put high premium on experience and knowledge of the relevant industries, while at the same time opposing established, under-performing 'managerial republics' and the 'it is good enough' type of thinking.

- Creative approach to investee and client's needs in relation to potential financing options and transaction execution
- Wide-ranging competence of the team relating to transaction execution and relations with capital market institutions, coupled with extensive knowledge of corporate finance
