I spent over 25 years in investment banking doing mergers and acquisitions and also complex financing transactions. A few years ago I began buying small companies for my own portfolio and recently set up my own fund to make non-control investments in small companies. I am keenly aware of the issues small business owners deal with when growing their businesses and I would be comfortable in a passive role or one in which I could also serve in an advisory capacity. Because of my background I am very comfortable with developing creative structures. I would be interested in deals with equity, debt or hybrid securities. I have a preference for investing in companies with strong growth potential. These could be start ups with growth concepts or existing companies leveraging a new concept. I would be very interested in helping existing companies with the structuring and financing of business acquisitions. I believe my background would be a value add in any deal

My name is Carl Nicks. I'm 28 years old. I've been a professional athlete going on 7 years. I have a pretty good portfolio but really want to diversify it and hopefully join some of you in lucrative business opportunities. I won't act like I am a Shark from the tv show Shark Tank I do have common sense and I wouldn't be where I am without a little smarts. If u want to take your business to the next level or need some capital to get started I would be glad to listen.

We provide needed capital for project principals with solid business plans and a strong team. It is our desire to work with projects that will positively impact the local economy. Projects and business ventures are given a thorough and realistic evaluation to ascertain their viability for funding. We are interested in retaining an equity position in the project/business ventures we would finance. Our focus is on commercial and residential real estate development projects (including resorts and mixed use developments), restaurants, historic building renovations (castles and such like), private aviation ventures and global village projects. We would also invest in existing businesses that are in distress and in need of capital to grow, including manufacturing, retail and the service industry sectors. Feel free to submit these types of projects for possible funding considerations.
