-- Amidst an industry where founders endure months of endless work to raise capital, Nassau Street Partners, a modern capital advisory firm based on Wall Street, is challenging its neighbours’ traditional investment banking model. Founders often only have a small amount of runway which doesn’t match up with traditional investment banking timelines. With a streamlined, tech-enabled approach, Nassau Street Partners are able to drastically compress timelines and expand investor reach.
In a market where raising capital still too often follows a slow, linear path – six-month preparation cycles, manual investor outreach, and narrow distribution – Nassau is introducing a model optimized for speed, scale, and strategic targeting. The firm helps companies raise between ($1 million and $50 million) by delivering investment-bank quality execution in a fraction of the time.
Compressing Months into Weeks
Traditional capital advisory processes typically require several months of preparation before a deal ever hits an investor’s desk. Founders and management teams are asked to dedicate extensive time to building a teaser, pitch deck, financial model, management presentation, and often multiple iterations of materials – followed by a slow rollout to a small group of known investors.
This pace of delivery is not synergistic with the lower middle market. “Our clients don’t have six months to prepare a story,” said Juan Moreno, Managing Partner at Nassau Street Partners. “What I’ve been so impressed by is Nassau Street Partners’ ability to get any raise in front of often three to four thousand investors in the space of weeks. It really is the future of investment banking.”
By combining several decades of capital markets expertise with a fast, execution-focused process, Nassau produces investment-grade collateral – decks, memos, financials and projections – within weeks. The firm works directly with founders, sponsors, and CFOs to distill complex businesses into clear investor stories that meet institutional standards.
From Rolodex to Reach
Beyond speed, Nassau differentiates itself through reach. While legacy firms typically rely on a narrow investor Rolodex – often regional, aging, and limited – Nassau takes a broader view. Its team runs precision outreach across a proprietary network of thousands of family offices, HNWIs, institutional allocators, and strategic capital providers, both in the U.S. and abroad.
Each transaction is mapped to a customized investor profile based on sector, check size, geography, and strategic interest. The firm uses targeted outbound, curated warm introductions, and data-driven investor workflows to rapidly generate interest.
In a typical four-month cycle, Nassau can drive 20–25 high-quality investor conversations – in this time, traditional advisors typically only begin investor outreach.
The firm’s model is resonating with a growing set of capital seekers: growth-stage companies, independent sponsors, and fund managers navigating increasingly fragmented and global capital markets.
Recent mandates include:
An $8M raise for a founder-focused SaaS company streamlining operations, finance, and investor updates for early-stage startups;
A $5M raise for a digital adjunctive therapeutic platform integrating gaze-tracking, ABA therapy, and cloud-based analytics to support high-intensity autism treatment;
A $6M raise for an enterprise XR infrastructure platform delivering real-time, cloud-based rendering and spatial computing for aerospace, defense, and automotive clients;
A $15M raise for an industrial hardware company developing high-efficiency, low-noise traction drive systems for HVAC, refrigeration, and heavy equipment applications;
By design, Nassau’s modernized banking model supports an industry-agnostic strategy adaptable across industry verticals.
Replacing Legacy with Leverage
“The legacy model was built for a different era,” said Saul Friend, Director at Nassau Street Partners. “Today, capital allocators expect quality and speed. We’re giving founders and sponsors access to both.”
While Nassau charges a modest upfront retainer, its model avoids the drag of prolonged prep cycles and overbuilt materials. Instead, the focus is on rapid launch, investor-driven refinement, and hands-on execution – delivering real traction faster.
With strong coverage across North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia, the firm is particularly effective in raising capital from family offices and smaller strategics – segments often underutilized by traditional firms.
