Venturn are Business Development and Turnaround specialists.

We help our clients get more out of their business.

Whether they are looking to redress underperformance, overcome financial problems or gear up to maximise growth potential. We address the issues in a no nonsense pragmatic way and provide leadership experience when you really
need it.

Venturn are an operational improvement team with extensive experience of supporting businesses with growing pains, trading difficulties or general management issues. We generally work on an advisory or interim placement basis focusing on delivering sustainable improvements to the bottom line.

We don’t call ourselves consultants as we go beyond the stereotypical reports and presentations and go into the inner workings of a company.

"We roll our sleeves up, and work together with you to fix the underlying issues."

Case Study.

Venturn took on a new client in December 2009 which supplies medical gas to parts of the NHS. The business was fundamentally sound, but it had grown rapidly to a 30% market share. Due to a delay in the rollout of a major project, it now had a cash flow problem

• Venturn's Approach : The problem was simple, we had no cash for the Christmas payroll. Our approach was to rapidly gain consensus on the possible options and get moving quickly. We didn't have time for each stakeholder to act in isolation, we needed to get all parties talking quickly.
• Objectivity : There were multiple stakeholders - the VC fund, the trading company, suppliers, shareholders, the HSBC workout team, HSBC invoice finance, NHS trusts, and the employees who were looking forward to Christmas !
• Time : Frank discussions and some intensive negotiations created a variety of plans all of which were initially pursued. Over time, plan A emerged as the winner and £1.5m of new money was raised in February.
• Experience : The journey wasn't easy, but keeping everyone on track and ensuring that the value in the business was protected created the best result for all stakeholders.
