Strategic and Tactical Consulting for Technology Companies and Investors
Cogit Group works with both technology-focused companies and the venture capitalists that fund them. 

Cogit helps technology companies ensure that their business is aligned with core technology.  Providing strategic and tactical assistance, Cogit works with companies on an ongoing or defined project basis.  We've worked with firms trying to keep up with heady growth expectations, as well as making sure that the lights stay on in down markets.

Cogit assists venture capitalists by investigating potential investments, providing in-depth analysis that quantifies risks and opportunities.  We help fill in the gaps when a partner wants an unbiased, outside opinion.  We can provide an initial impression before that first round of funding, triage a faltering investment that might or might not merit a follow-on round, or work-out a problem investment with some residual value.

Scope of Work - Working with VCs
When the investment decision isn't quite clear, we help partners think through the plusses and minuses by providing a second opinion.  We will do a simple, one day review or an extensive market and intellectual property review - or anything in between - to help you determine whether or how aggressively you want to invest.  We specialize in early-stage investments and technology restarts.

 


What We Do Differently
Since we've worked with hundreds of technology firms, we've seen a tremendous range of strategies, market approaches, and degrees of success.  We can tell you what other companies have tried, how it applies to your situation, what did (and didn't) work, and what we think is your best option.
