| Sometimes technology businesses lose their way and all too often a great technology fails to become a commercial success. At these times investors and executives can come to believe that insolvency is the only way forward and fail to appreciate the many options available to rescue and rebuild value.

RestartVenture4th brings the team, processes, rigor and vision required to
build businesses of value from underexploited IP. |
The team at Venture4th have successfully managed many technology turnarounds.
The process begins with a rapid assessment of the situation:
- The reason for the difficulties
- The market conditions and opportunities available to the business
- Where value exists or can be built
- An appraisal of the risks and rewards for all shareholders involved in the turnaround process
- Formulation of a business structure, strategy and an action plan to move forward. This becomes the Turnaround Plan.

- Taking the primary role in day-to-day cash management; negotiating with creditors
- Leading the process of a financial restructuring plan; recapitalising the business through the introduction of new funds and/or through the renewed confidence of existing investors
- Augmenting the commercial capabilities of the business to drive revenues
- Approaching commercial partners to drive rapid access to new customers
- Identification and provision of executive and non-executive management capability where required
- Identification of corporate purchasers for parts of the business, the whole business or of its assets.
