About Us

We are a start-up advisory firm that operates across all industries and is supported by the DON Monte Carlo Ultra High Net Worth Business network. Our primary goal is to assist startup companies in understanding and entering the Ultra High Net Worth market, particularly in securing startup funding.

Benefits to tapping into Ultra-high-net-worth individuals

Ultra-high-net-worth individuals (UHNWIs, typically defined as people with investable assets of $30M+) play a very particular role in the startup funding ecosystem. Tapping into them can be important for several reasons: 


1. Access to Capital Beyond Traditional VC UHNWIs can write much larger checks than the average angel investor, reducing the number of investors a startup needs to raise from. They’re often more flexible than institutional VCs, sometimes willing to back unconventional ideas or fund a longer runway. 


2. Strategic Networks & Influence Many UHNWIs are successful entrepreneurs, executives, or investors themselves. They bring access to elite business networks, partnerships, and potential customers. Their endorsement can lend significant credibility and open doors that would otherwise take years to unlock. 


3. Patient Capital Unlike institutional funds that must return capital within a set timeline, UHNWIs can take a longer-term view. They may support startups through multiple rounds without the same short-term pressure to exit. 


4. Value Beyond Money Some UHNWIs are 'strategic angels' who actively mentor founders, provide introductions, and help with business strategy. Their reputational capital can act as a signal to other investors, making follow-on fundraising easier. 


5. Global Reach Many UHNWIs are internationally diversified in terms of business and personal investments. This can help startups expand into new markets quickly with the right connections. 


6. Flexibility in Deal Structuring They may offer creative terms, such as convertible debt, revenue-sharing agreements, or secondary liquidity for founders—structures VCs are often unwilling to consider. 


In short: UHNWIs can act as 'super angels'—combining large checks, patience, networks, and credibility. For startups in early or growth stages, especially those that don’t fit neatly into VC theses, tapping into UHNWIs can be game-changing. Utilizing the right investment advisory can help startups navigate this unique funding landscape.
