CITYZONE - SMALL CAP / HI-GROWTH PROFILES

DISCLAIMER
Cityzone is not an investment network and asks presenters to avoid reference to funding requirements during their elevator pitches. The purpose of the short case studies and/or Innovation Zone profiles at Cityzone events is to give growth companies an opportunity to present their business model to an audience. The role of the judges/panellists is to ask questions about the business model and to make useful comments that help the presenters (and the audience) to:

  • refine their strategic thinking;
  • consider new ideas and contacts that may be helpful;
  • improve their elevator pitch.

The main benefits for participants are education, promotion and - hopefully - entertainment. Any other business requirement is, of course, open to discussion: partners, customers, suppliers, staff, non-executive directors, etc. Anyone considering an investment in a company should first consult with one of the many professionals in the Cityzone network (see Who's Who directory) and/or event attendees, that are authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority. Case study format / apply to present at a future Cityzone event. Past/current case study (and elevator pitch) summaries:

Summary:  Armaec is a developer of wind farms in emerging markets where great opportunities exist. Increasing demand for energy due to the high growth of economies, supportive regulatory framework and good wind speeds make countries like Armenia, India and South Africa favourable countries to develop wind farms. Founded in 2006, the company is aiming to develop wind farms with a total capacity of 1,500 MW by 2015. This would attract a total investment of circa € 2.5 billion.

SUCCESS to us is measured in profits. No other benchmark will suffice. We will strive to maximise the return on your investment and will not rest until we can be proud of our results.
TEAM work is a vital ingredient of a creative organisation. Only by recognising and using in full the talents of everyone in our team, from chairman to secretary, can we expect to produce the outstanding results we demand. This means involving each member in our search for success.

LEARNING from others is something we encourage. We welcome the constructive suggestions and criticism that can lead us to higher achievement. There will always be new ideas and methods in the world of business, which we should never be too proud to embrace.
INTEGRITY is the foundation of long-term relationships and everything we do is predicated to that ethos.
