Draw investors to your innovation project

Have an industrial opportunity in mind, one you know can be a commercial success? One of your first challenges is to rally investors behind your ambitions.

To do so, you must show investors that your project has been carefully planned and can meet its objectives. Investors must understand that this investment opportunity does not pose any risks, but is rather a prospect for commercial success that cannot be ignored. Seneca has the experience and know-how to get you there. We can determine the steps, time and investments that will let you achieve your goals. And, naturally, we can also be there to implement your project afterwards as well.

THE FORMULA FOR CONVINCING INVESTORS/

Sound financial data

The promise of very low OPEX and CAPEX that beat your competitors is a critical variable with the power to draw investors to your project. These data must be quickly available in order for you to persuade future investors.

Seneca’s team has the ability to rapidly assess your project’s OPEX and CAPEX with a minimum of data. Better still, we are adept at lowering those expenditures.

Controlled risks that are not intimidating

When investors are presented with innovative industrial projects, they are always concerned about the risks that naturally come with innovation. They must be constantly reassured about the project’s viability.

We have the experience you need to rigorously structure your approach and sell your project. By adopting the 5S plan, which includes a detailed project charter and the Seneca process package—as well as assessments approved by recognized engineers—you will show investors that you have what it takes to succeed.

The best available technology

Our dedicated experts are familiar with all technologies available on the market. To find the best tech upgrades for your production facility, we will identify the ones that match your business objectives, your technical environment and your budget. If no single technology is a perfect fit, we have the expertise to develop one. We know the costs (CAPEX and OPEX), the timeline and the steps required to get there, thus allowing you to convince your potential investors.

Your ambitions: some examples/

  • New mining, plant, chemical or other resource
  • Abundance of a residual material to exploit
  • Energy recovery
  • Resource generally used for different cases.

Our experts conduct a thorough study of all the transformation technologies and processes currently available around the globe. We then assess their suitability to your needs, to see if there is a need to innovate.

If there is, we determine what new technologies or processes should be developed in order to create a marketable product from your resource in a controlled and repetitive manner.

Our experience and know-how will help you to identify the data and steps required to develop this new technology. We will show you the path to success!

INNOVATION TO MANUFACTURING IN FIVE SEAMLESS STEPS

1) Research and discover

Our engineers develop technical and economic models to validate different manufacturing scenarios.

3) Laboratory testing

Laboratory testing is the first phase of process design. All critical elements identified in the previous step are resolved by our experts and all tests are documented.

4) Build a pilot- or semi-pilot plant

This new phase aims at testing the continuous process while optimizing it for manufacturing. Here, the process is developed entirely by our engineers.

5) Switch to commercial mode

The risks associated with marketing will have been lowered considerably by virtue of the rigorously documented completion of the previous steps. Our team will continue managing your project until your plant has been built or your operations site has been developed.
