Hanson-Smith, Ltd.

Work with startups

We have helped launch or nurture numerous startup ventures, most involving software and service offerings in such areas as financial services, healthcare technology, opinion research, and professional services.

Typical startup activities have included business strategy, process design, technology architecture, capital acquisition, investor due diligence, team building, and formation and nurturing of key business partnerships.

Since startups are always resource- and cash-poor, we have often rolled up our sleeves and joined the team, either on a long- or short-term basis, helping to address critical tasks that simply had to be completed. We have sometimes provided such support in an informal role; at other times, we have become active participants in the venture.
