Toronto Technology Accountants

It's great to hear success stories of new tech startup companies obtaining seed capital to develop and bring their new technology to market.  We come across businesses all the time that have developed a technology, software, or application that is successful in solving a business or personal challenge.  As these businesses grow, we make it a priority to ensure that their accounting, tax matters are taking care of and they understand their reporting requirements and plan ahead to stay on top of the game before equity partners become involved.

Equity Partners

The goal for most technology start ups is the securing capital to develop products to bring to market.  Since new technology is a niche industry, new products don't always find it easy to obtain traditional debt financing via banks, or other lending sources.  The common root has been seeking equity partners, whether local venture capital firms, or firms from Silicon Valley.  Once the first round of equity has been secured, depending on the requirements and interests of the firms, a second and third private placement may proceed.  

Market & Operational Efficiency

As Technology businesses have brought there products to market and have grew rapidly, the challenge becomes operational efficiency and aligning your IT system, processes, and controls to support the sales growth and volume.
