The Process and Its Options

Once accepted into the SATAI program, the Client will have some options, depending on the type of assistance needed. Typically entrepreneurs will select one of three options or “Tracks” they will want to pursue. The decision as to which Track is up to the Client and SATAI will help with the selection.

Track One – Investment

The Investment Track is most often selected by SATAI’s entrepreneurs. This is primarily due its end result of the Investment Track with entrepreneurs being introduced to SATAI’s contacts within the investment community. This approach is somewhat structured.

Potential investors look to SATAI for qualified, professional, and investment grade opportunities. This practice is key to SATAI’s value to both the entrepreneurs and the investment community. Both parties will know that by going through the rigor of the Investment Track, opportunities will have been maximized for investment potential.

The focus of the Investment Track is to insure that the entrepreneurs are able to advocate, both written and orally, their new business venture in the manner most favorable to achieving a positive investment decision.

Initially, SATAI will make two assessments of the venture. The first is an assessment of where the venture is on the following development continuum:

Development Continuum

Each stage in the development of a technology venture has specific appeal for different types of investors with different objectives. SATAI needs to determine which potential investors would have the most interest based on where the venture is in the development continuum.

The second assessment will determine how ready the entrepreneur is, together with all the supporting documentation, for presentation to the investment community. Those elements are discussed below, but, a preliminary assessment will help to lay out a preparation strategy.
