- What does Glengary do?
Glengary is a venture catalyst enterprise that provides a unique combination of resources to enable its client companies to achieve commercial success. Glengary focuses on the process of growing its early-stage client companies through the effective management of resources, aligning agendas and the achievement of developmental milestones, resulting in the material increase in enterprise value.
Glengary recognizes that most early-stage companies can be assisted in two critical areas: cash and talent. Typically, early-stage companies are unable to attract enough cash resources to hire and retain the talent required to increase their chances of success. In fact, many early-stage companies make the mistake of hiring who they can afford, not who they need! To mitigate the human-capital risk, Glengary provides highly qualified and successful management team members to its client companies. Since the provision of such management team members is done on a part-time basis, we can furnish the talent at a fraction of the cash cost of a comparable hire.
Beyond Glengary’s provision of management team members to complement the existing client company management, Glengary can add value at the board level, with day-to-day operations, technology development, assistance with sales and marketing, strategy and fundraising.
Glengary differentiates itself from a consulting firm by taking equity risk in two ways: first, Glengary makes cash investments in its client companies in return for equity; second, Glengary will provide its services at below cash market value in return for at-risk sweat equity. By taking an at-risk position with our client companies, we align our interests with the other stakeholders of our client companies with the common goal of increasing enterprise value.
