As an entrepreneur, when you make the decision to take an investment, you hope to get money, good advice, and maybe a couple industry contact hook ups that might turn into revenue. But, honestly, you'd just take the money. With Montrose Lane, Novi has gotten all three, to the point where the advice and industry contacts are worth more than the money.

Once you get to know the Montrose Lane team it’s an easy decision to partner with them. We weren’t necessarily looking to raise capital, but they showed a great ability and strong willingness to work with us on growing the business. Plus… they get bonus points for being a partner we look forward to chatting with on a regular basis.

When we raised capital, we were looking for more than money -- we wanted a partner to help us grow the business. Montrose Lane has acted like a true partner to us at every step. They're smart, and willing to roll up their sleeves and get things done. Most importantly, they're guys we're excited to spend the next few years working closely with.

It was an easy decision to partner with Montrose Lane. The Montrose Lane team differentiates themselves from many other venture or private equity firms by strategically focusing on developing the energy tech space. They are willing to roll up their sleeves to help entrepreneurs and founders institutionalize and grow their businesses.

We were looking for a partner, not just capital. My due diligence on Montrose Lane yielded the same consistent feedback: they DO help, they DO partner, they DO roll up their sleeves. After several rounds at three different startups, I know good money when I see it. After we closed I received unsolicited congrats saying, “The Montrose Lane team is first class….congrats!”
