Our Process
01
Submission and Initial Assessment
Weeks 0–2 · Preliminary overview within 14 working days
Engagement begins through the Client Portal. You sign a non-disclosure agreement first, so your Company’s information is protected before anything is shared. Then upload whatever you have from the preliminary assessment checklist. Partial submissions are welcome, and you can add documents at any time. Chair Capital reviews the submission against its criteria, covering sector fit, stage of development and the visibility required to commit, followed by a confidential conversation to discuss the business, capital requirement and milestone roadmap. The preliminary investment overview, outlining indicative structure, terms and the pathway forward, is issued within 14 working days of a complete submission.
02
Structuring and Diligence
Weeks 2–12 · Diligence and structuring
Once formal engagement is signed, full institutional diligence commences alongside the structuring of your contracted offer. We work with you to address financials, governance, legal structure, and operational readiness, with the cost of principal diligence absorbed by Chair. Where bridge capital is required to reach the milestone, our M&A Advisory team coordinates that raise in parallel through a pre-qualified Financial Advisor Partner, keeping deployment timelines on track.
03
Contracted Offer and Deployment
Months 3–6 · Capital deployed
A formal contracted offer is issued, structured around a defined business milestone rather than a calendar round. Capital is deployed through Chair Capital Partners LLC, the firm’s principal investment entity (directly or through dedicated SPV structures), alongside aligned investment partners, typically within three to six months of initial engagement. From offer through to exit, we work alongside you as an active partner, with the Valuation Anchor protecting founder equity through every subsequent raise.
Strategic partnerships between institutions, founders, and investors.
If you have further questions, please reach out via our Contact page.
Are you actively investing?
Yes. Chair Capital is actively deploying capital across energy transition, data infrastructure, AI, and healthcare technologies. Through four dedicated investment strategies, we are currently reviewing and backing companies at every stage from early-stage validation through to construction and full build-out.
What is your typical investment amount?
We invest between £10 million and £100 million per company on an equity basis, structured around key business milestones rather than deployed in a single tranche. Companies below our minimum ticket size can be supported through our M&A Advisory team.
How do I submit documents?
Documents are submitted through the Client Portal at portal.chair.capital. Create an account and sign the non-disclosure agreement, which protects your Company’s confidential information from the moment you share it. Then upload what you have from the preliminary assessment checklist: financial model, investor presentation, capitalisation table and corporate structure chart. You don’t need everything to start: partial submissions are welcome and further documents can be added at any time. The preliminary investment overview is issued within 14 working days of a complete submission.
What does your due diligence process look like?
Due diligence begins with the documents uploaded to the Client Portal, following signature of a non-disclosure agreement within the portal. Chair Capital reviews those materials against its investment criteria and prepares a preliminary investment overview, which is discussed with the Company at an initial meeting. Once formal engagement is signed, full institutional diligence covers financials, governance, legal structure and operational readiness, and the cost of principal diligence is absorbed by Chair Capital. Companies that submit complete materials through the portal at the outset move to the initial meeting and preliminary overview sooner.
Are you open to co-investment partnerships?
Our institutional-grade investment approach is specifically designed to attract sophisticated co-investors. Over £345 million has been structured and raised in follow-on funding around Chair’s commitment, and we actively facilitate introductions to our network of 300+ executives, strategic partners, and major institutions who regularly seek to co-invest alongside Chair Capital.
What if my company needs bridge funding before reaching your minimum ticket size?
This is precisely what our M&A Advisory division was built for. Where a company requires between £1 million and £15 million to reach our investment threshold, our Advisory team activates our partner network of family offices, VCs, angel networks, and loan note providers, with Chair Capital's committed term sheet de-risking the bridge round entirely.
What support do you offer beyond capital?
We provide active strategic support throughout the investment lifecycle, including NED services and fractional leadership, board composition and governance optimisation, financial modelling and scenario planning, procurement and supply chain support, and introductions to our global network of executives, strategic partners, and co-investors.
