INVESTOR COLLABORATIVE
Afor Founders and Funders
The Investor Collaborative streamlines how innovation gets funded, developed, and brought to market. Sponsored by M&S Ventures, this initiative connects investors, founders, and co-development partners to accelerate high-impact projects with clarity and momentum. Whether you’re deploying capital, building a solution, or navigating government funding, we make it easier to say yes and move forward.
What We Bring to the Table
Strategic Co-Development
We don’t just advise. We co-build. Through M&S Consulting, we actively partner on strategic projects by assembling expert teams, securing contracts, and delivering outcomes. If you’ve got a promising solution and a clear use case, we’re ready to bridge the gap between idea and execution.
Deal Facilitation and Opportunity Matching
We identify and shape opportunities that make sense for everyone involved. From special-purpose engagements to scalable co-development projects, we help founders and investors confidently move quickly.
Government and Public Sector Navigation
Breaking into public sector work should not take years. We’ve helped ventures unlock MAP funding, navigate procurement hurdles, and secure federal contracts. We’ll help you avoid unnecessary delays and get to work.
