For Entrepreneurs
Is your company ready for its next stage of growth?
We work with entrepreneurs and their companies to identify where additional capital may accelerate a proven business.
Leading Edge looks for companies with real businesses, real customers and identifiable opportunities to grow. It evaluates what a company can already demonstrate and determines whether the Leading Edge structure may be appropriate for that growth opportunity.
What we're interested in
We are interested in companies with demonstrable customer demand, operating history, contracts or recurring revenue, expansion opportunities, new facilities or capacity requirements, technology and product expansion, and other identifiable growth initiatives.
