FAQ
What is included in venture capital advisory from Waveup?
We provide consulting services across three core areas:
• Fundraising. We help high-growth teams prepare for early stage to Series A-D+ rounds by building pitch decks, financial models, and investor narratives;
• Business growth. We develop go-to-market blueprints and help with market entry and sales planning;
• M&A support. We craft CIMs, define valuation logic, and position your business for buyers.
That being said, every project is unique. We normally engage with one client on 4-5+ projects over the years, and help across multiple different areas of growth and business development – from marketing materials, to website development and investor communications.
Do you work with pre-seed or early-stage startups?
Yes, we do. While our main focus is Series A+ companies with real traction, we also work with pre-seed and seed startups if we believe the business has solid potential.
Over the years, we’ve supported over 150 pre-seed rounds (up to $5M) and 100+ successful seed raises ($1M-$10M+) across different verticals. For early-stage teams, we don’t just help with the story and pitch deck; we also run a VC readiness assessment and help prepare for investor conversations, positioning, and next steps.
Can Waveup help me raise Series B or late-stage funding?
Absolutely. Our sweet spot is high-growth companies raising capital at Series A to Series D+ stage. We have worked on multiple large late-stage rounds up to $150M+ in the technology, deep-tech, healthcare and biotech space among others. What differentiates us is our unique experience of how to craft a compelling story, fast execution as well as in-depth knowledge of the expectations around growth, retention and GTM metrics expected at various stages.
Can you help with M&A prep or exit positioning?
Yes, we have extensive experience in the M&A space as two of our partners come from investment banking background, including JP Morgan and Lazard. Over the years, we supported multiple businesses on $10M-$100M+ transactions, both on sell and buy side. Our core expertise lies in drafting compelling CIMs, completing business valuations and helping in preparing for due diligence and management presentations.
Does Waveup introduce startups to investors?
We’re not brokers, so we generally don’t engage in investor outreach. We do work closely with 120+ VC funds globally, and if you have the right metrics that fit our investor profile, we’re happy to make warm intros. However, these are mostly relevant for revenue-generating companies in Series A+ rounds.
We are a non-profit. Can we get fundraising advisory services from Waveup?
Absolutely! While most of our work is with VC-backed businesses, in the past, we successfully developed materials for non-profits.
Best to reach out to us directly so we can understand what you’re working on and advise on scope and pricing.
What makes Waveup different from AI tools or freelancers?
We have unique expertise across various verticals, industries, and geographies and an unmatched success track record. We see and work on more deals than anyone else in the market – $3B+ raised, 50+ Series A and late-stage rounds, and 20+ M&A exits, just to name a few.
Our results speak for themselves: founders usually stay with us for 4-5 rounds and engage our team on multiple various projects over the years.
How is Waveup different from pitch deck agencies?
At Waveup, we offer more than pitch deck services.
While most pitch deck agencies focus on design – you give them the content, and they make it look good – we go much deeper.
We build the full investment case – from the market logic and investor narrative to the financial model and the deck itself. So, we work on content, strategy, and, of course, award-winning design that VCs / investors love and that prioritizes the right messages and the right story (proven across multiple successful raises).
Beyond fundraising, we can also help you grow or prepare for a sale, whatever stage you’re at.
What sets Waveup apart from management consulting firms?
We deliver similar level of expertise and service, but with a different approach. We see management consultant firms excelling in the areas of market research and in-depth strategic blueprints. Our advantage lies in powerful storytelling specifically for investment / M&A purposes. We also invest a lot of time in working closely with your team and coaching them along the way.
I don’t need fundraising. What can Waveup do for me in this case?
Actually, quite a lot. Our services aren’t limited to fundraising. We can offer growth support (go-to-market, market entry, and sales materials) and M&A consulting if you’re thinking about an exit. We can also help to elevate your marketing materials, design or website – whatever is needed to grow one’s business.
