To solve this, Palm Venture Studios provides access to a vetted network of shared services and back-office support to help startup leaders and their businesses succeed: → Investment & Capital While we approach investment with each founder on a tailored basis, we pursue a significant equity stake in most businesses because we really pull on the ores. We assess the capital needs of a stuck startup and can invest quickly and discreetly if needed. → Go-To-Market Our network of experts collaborates closely with startups in their GTM strategy and motion. We work together to refine their value propositions, refine their customer persona, expand their TAM, optimize sales channels, and drive customer acquisition and retention. → Finance & Accounting We provide robust, disciplined financial and accounting support.
