WHAT EXS LOOKS FOR
HOW EXS WORKS WITH PARTNERS
EXS works alongside management teams as flexible long-term partners
Our goal is to form complementary partnerships with founders and management teams in an aligned structure
We want to let the management team focus on their strengths, while EXS helps form and guide the overall capital strategy
Management focuses on its core operations and underlying assets
EXS guides overall capital strategy to increase value over time
Management - operations, development, branding, design
EXS - capital strategy, corporate finance, M&A, value realization
We are not just investors, but part of the team to grow the platform
We work side-by-side with the management team and invest our own money, time and effort to show "skin in the game"
We typically also take common equity alongside founders/management team to fully align interests - whatever is good for your equity is good for us
Management alignment is critical to us, and we promote the use of incentive plans like ESOP schemes to help retain and recruit management
EXS adapts its strategy to each project with multiple sources of capital
We flexibly design the structure of each project to suit the needs of the project
We have access to the full range of capital, ranging form VCs and high net worth individuals to major institutional investors and banks
Our value-add goes far beyond capital
As entrepreneurs ourselves, we understand from experience what founders and management team need
Our experience and track record has given us the capabilities and a wide network of resources, relationships, and more, which we can contribute on top of capital, such as performing private equity real estate related financial analysis, evaluation & management and all related business activities (click to see more)
