About Us
The Tangent Network is a business development and origination agency.
Tangent Effects
Improve performance, consolidate a market, and acquire access to markets, skills or technology in less time and at a lower cost than could be achieved using in house resources.
Solutions that are derived through partnerships may offer lower per transaction margins however this is more than compensated by the acceleration and volume of business that can be generated.
Fitness Landscapes
Businesses, particularly small to medium businesses, place bets on where to direct their products and services. Over time, solutions evolve incrementally to try and better fit the landscapes of their chosen markets. An inevitable trade-off occurs between time spent improving the position in one market v.s. exploring the positions that are possible in other markets or other configurations of products, services and distribution. These 'tangent opportunities'
There is an inevitable opportunity cost
We do not provide capital, we do not work with "pure-play" financial investors.
We believe that the best partnerships arise through targeted sourcing based on unique strategies developed to suit your unique situation. We don't 'shop around' using mailing lists or other high volume, mass-market, indiscriminate approaches. We develop a strategy and invest the time to pursue that strategy based on our knowledge of the market and experience in businesses like yours.
We operate on a contingent fee model whereby we only receive a fee if an opportunity we introduce culminates in a commercial arrangement.
