Capital raising with
structure and reliability

The raising of capital influences growth, decision-making freedom, and often also the shareholder structure. Accordingly, the requirements for structure, timing, and partner selection are high. HSCie has been supporting capital raising processes for many years across different stages of corporate development. Our task is to realistically assess financing projects, successfully approach investors in a targeted way, and manage processes so that they remain economically viable.

What
capital raising
really is about

Capital raising is not just about securing funding. It determines how much ownership and control is given up, how flexible the company remains, and which expectations must be met in the future. Many companies underestimate how strongly structure and investor profile shape their future scope of action. At the same time, there is often uncertainty about which form of financing is appropriate and what consequences it entails. This is why it is crucial to clearly assess funding needs, objectives, and feasibility at an early stage.

Objective and
purpose

Growth, acquisitions, restructuring, or shareholder changes require different financing approaches. Not every capital raise serves the same purpose.

Structure
and influence

Equity, minority stakes, or hybrid forms differ significantly in terms of voting rights, reporting obligations, and long-term commitments.

Investor logic

Investors follow clear return targets and time horizons. Ignoring these logics risks misalignment and future conflicts.

Feasibility

Not every financing that looks good on paper is realistically achievable in the market.

How HSCie supports
capital raising

Assessment and financing concept

At the outset, the capital requirement is assessed in the context of the company’s development. This results in a financing concept that meaningfully combines objective, structure, and investor universe.

Positioning and investor outreach

Based on a clear equity story, suitable investors are identified and approached in a targeted way. HSCie draws on long-standing relationships with financial investors, family offices, and institutional capital providers, complemented by international reach via SOCIUS Global.

Structuring and closing

During discussions and negotiations, HSCie ensures clarity on structure, valuation, and terms. The goal is financing that is not only completed but also sustainable in the long term.

Typical
questions from our clients

What form of capital raising is right for us?

The appropriate form of capital raising depends on the specific purpose. Growth initiatives, acquisitions, shareholder solutions, or special situations require different structures. In practice, companies often consider equity too early and underestimate debt financing options.


HSCie first assesses objective, capital needs, and time horizon, and then evaluates which structure is economically viable and suitable for the company. This avoids raising capital that may restrict entrepreneurial flexibility in the long term.

Control is not determined solely by the size of the stake. In practice, voting rights, vetoes, information rights, and exit provisions largely determine how much influence new investors have over decision-making.

HSCie ensures that participation structures and legal terms align with both the investor role and the shareholders’ objectives. Experience is key in ensuring that control is intentionally managed rather than unintentionally given away.

These questions can only be answered meaningfully when structure and investor profile are considered together.

Investors differ not only in capital strength, but especially in expectations, qualitative contribution, time horizon, and decision-making logic. What appears attractive at first glance may turn out to be unsuitable in the process.

HSCie brings experience from numerous financing processes and understands the differences between financial investors, family offices, and strategic capital providers. This enables targeted selection of investors who are both economically and culturally a fit.

Capital markets are cyclical. Investment appetite, valuation expectations, and decision-making processes change noticeably with market conditions. Many companies overestimate feasibility in certain phases.

HSCie uses experience from different market cycles to realistically assess feasibility. The goal is to adjust expectations early and only initiate processes that have a realistic chance of closing.

Capital raising requires management attention, particularly in the preparation and negotiation phases. Without clear structure, the process can quickly consume operational resources.

HSCie takes over active process management, prepares decisions, and consolidates investor communication. This allows management to remain operationally focused and fully capable of running the business.
