Alithea (from Greek, also ‘Aletheia’) stands for truth, discovery, unconcealment.
There is value in truth and in transparency when making business decisions. Today, we possess many tools to come as close as possible to estimating how a company will perform. Valithea has refined these tools to make it possible to create realistic financial projections from the very early stages, and to publish valuations that take all leading and new valuation methods into account, with a commitment to have trustworthy, informed and transparent financial transactions involving new and fast-growing companies.
Valithea is a digital consultancy that helps make the investment process easier for early-stage investors, corporates and entrepreneurs, wherever the project is. I work with clients as a team, understanding your sector expertise, having clear communication, ethical business practices and working towards set goals.
With experience of working in the most innovative sector, all methods and documents are constantly adapted to changing markets, upcoming trends, new sectors and enriched by the industry knowledge of clients. Valithea is active globally and has worked on projects from the largest startups hubs to innovative projects in developing countries. We follow the highest standards in all of our work, and valuations are carried out according to NACVA’s Professional Valuation Standards. In addition, due to our recurring work for UK and other companies in global startup hubs, English Law is used for our contracts.
The consultancy projects have transparent flat fees, set timelines and set goals – after developing the most efficient methods based on years of working with clients. Bespoke and on-site projects are possible for larger companies or transactions.
Valithea’s mission is to create an efficient way to increase the transparency of early-stage investments through innovative and advanced analytical methods and development of stage-related valuation standards. We are working on issuing practical industry publications and courses, bringing innovative deal flow screening and monitoring services to the market, issuing certifications to increase the quality and trust in early-stage investments, as well as creating new ways for investors and entrepreneurs to connect.
