Transaction Characteristics
Stonebridge assists clients in raising $5 million to $150 million in private capital from institutional or strategic investors. For early stage and emerging growth technology companies, we raise $5 to $25 million in private equity capital in the form of convertible preferred or common stock from venture capital, later stage growth capital, hedge fund and/or strategic investors.
