ABOUT US

Clipperton Finance is a Corporate Finance firm focused on providing high level financial and strategy advisory services to growth companies and their investors in the Technology and Media sectors

KEY DIFFERENTIATING FACTORS

High Tech & Media expertise

With a strong background in technology and media (see Partners' profile), Clipperton Finance's team has developed closed ties with entrepreneurs as well as with all the major global players of the High Tech & Media financing value chain: tier one international VCs, as well as corporate venture funds and blue chips. This allows Clipperton Finance to deliver high level advisory services from big seed rounds to the liquidity events - M&A as well as IPOs.

Entrepreneurial mindset for a long-term relationship

As Clipperton Finance is in itself a high growth company, Clipperton Finance's team works in resonance with its clients' mindset: reactivity, flexibility, result-oriented. As a consequence, Clipperton Finance's remuneration is mainly success fee centered, with an incentive-based rewarding and an equity kicker.

Global reach for industry standard companies

Since the late 90s, Clipperton Finance's team has taken part to the internationalization of the French High Tech ecosystem by advising high potential French-based start-ups and by providing them with deep industry expertise, extensive relationships and global reach. Clipperton Finance positions its services at international standards - for instance, every capital raises arranged by Clipperton have allowed a Tier 1 international VC to take part to the financing round (e.g. 3i, Partech International, WI Harper, Motorola Ventures, Intel Capital, Reliance etc. - see our tombstones for a complete list)

Process-driven approach with a fully dedicated transaction team

Clipperton Finance provides top investment banking advisory services to relatively small high tech and media companies: strategic analysis, valuation, information memorandum/prospectus, identification and approaches of potential investors, investor marketing, data room/due diligence supervision, roadshow preparation, assistance with negotiations and co-ordination of the work of legal advisers and auditors. (See Our Services for more details). Thanks to a thorough methodology (yet constantly refined) and a focused team, Clipperton Finance provides an optimal degree of reactivity and flexibility in execution.
