Capital introduction services Investors and LPs, introduced on a mandate.

Capital introduction puts a company or a fund manager in front of the investors and LPs that fit its raise. At spectup introductions are part of a mandate, not a list we sell: we position the raise, prepare the materials, build the target list from our network and our own investor data, make the introductions, run the outreach and take the first conversations, on a retainer plus a success fee.

Prime brokers introduce their hedge fund clients to allocators, as a service bundled with prime brokerage and paid for through trading. spectup is not a prime broker and takes no trading side of a relationship: one company or fund manager mandates us, pays a retainer and a success fee, and we stay in the process after the introduction.

A placement agent is mandated by a fund or an issuer to run the whole offering: the materials, a named target list worked to a timetable, and the process through to close. Capital introduction is the investor side of that work: who to approach, the introduction and the first conversations. At spectup both run inside one mandate, for one side only.

A capital introducer brings a company or a fund manager in front of investors it already has relationships with, rather than handing over a list to work yourself. spectup does that from three layers: 440+ relationships out of transactions we closed, 2,500+ investors and LPs it has sat in front of with clients, and the investor books of 30+ partner firms. It runs the targeting before the introduction and the pipeline after it.

Investor outreach is the process of identifying the right investors for a specific raise, approaching them, and converting that approach into meetings. Run by spectup, it covers targeting, the approach across several channels, the first conversations, the pipeline that records them, and the updates that keep every investor warm until they commit. It is the working half of our capital introduction services.

Our capital introduction services deliver meetings, each one briefed. The list is yours to keep, but it is not the deliverable: a name you have to work yourself is a cost, not an asset.

Your choice, and it can change mid-mandate. Either spectup takes every first call, qualifies it, gets the NDA signed and opens the data room before anything reaches you, or the investor goes straight into your calendar and you are briefed first.

We build it from three layers: 440+ direct investor and LP relationships out of closed transactions, 2,500+ investors and LPs we have sat in front of with clients, and 30+ partner firms whose own investors open on a shared mandate. We then filter it with our signal engine, watching 80+ triggers for the moment capital becomes allocatable: a fund closes, a mandate is published, a partner moves, an exit frees capital. We build the list for this raise rather than pull it off a shelf, and you approve it before anyone is approached.

Both, as separate mandates, because they are separate rooms. VC outreach targets equity investors for a company. LP outreach targets allocators who commit to a fund, and an LP takes the meeting because of who is asking.

We follow up with each one on a 30-day update cadence. A pass this quarter is often a lead two quarters later.

No. We stay on through terms, valuation and structure, and join the investor calls you want us on.

For capital introduction services spectup charges a monthly retainer plus a success fee on capital raised, both written into the mandate before we approach the first investor. No rate card: the figures follow the instrument, the size and the jurisdictions.

The target list, the pipeline with every note and objection, and the relationships. It all lives in a shared Notion room you have open from day one, so there is nothing to hand back.

Yes. Send the cities and the dates, and our outreach targets investors sitting in them.
