Advising Ambitious CEOs and Investors
to better outcomes, always backed by Data and Intelligence
Data and Intelligence Led
We found the world of consultancy too contextual or ‘fluffy’ and the world of corporate finance too transactional or ‘hit and miss’.
So we added a data and intelligence layer to inform strategic decision making and significantly improve outcomes from transactions for Investors and CEOs
In a world where 80% of businesses who enter into a sale process fail to sell (Forbes), we’ve flipped the statistics dramatically with higher success rates and above benchmark outcomes for 20 years.

Antony and his Executive Team came to Bean Partners Ventures Limited for support with a capital raise, and the subsequent deployment of that capital in preparation for, and execution of, the business sale. The team’s objectives were to sell to a great buyer, achieving a good outcome for investors and the Executive Team. The business sold to YouGov, achieving all of the teams objectives.
“As Chair, my role is to deal with competing stakeholder priorities, and the buck ultimately stops with me. Bean Partners Ventures Limited helped me personally to be a better diplomat, and more broadly really guided our team through the process. We were able to pin every decision back to the evidence provided by the intelligence, giving us confidence and clarity in our decisions and stakeholder communications."
