Advisory for aerospace and space founders preparing Series A — raise narrative, investor map, and diligence readiness.
Aerospace, space, aviation, and adjacent industrial tech founders who have closed Seed and are preparing Series A. Teams that know the technology and need the capital path — narrative, investors, and diligence — to match what A actually requires.
How we work
1 / Align the raise — Clarify what Series A has to prove, and what the story must survive in diligence.
2 / Map the room — Who is in mandate, who is a polite dead end, and how to sequence outreach.
3 / Get diligence-ready — Button down what serious A investors will ask before the first hard conversation.
What we do
Kennox advises on the raise. Hands-on on narrative, who belongs in the process, and what has to be ready — not software, not a directory listing.
Raise narrative
Raise narrative that holds up with aerospace investors and corporate venture.
Investor map
Investor map built for this sector — airline CVC, OEM venture, specialists.
Diligence readiness
Diligence readiness before the first serious Series A conversation.
Who we work with
Where Seed → A usually breaks
Between Seed and Series A, deals stall for predictable reasons.
The Seed story fails A diligence
The story that closed Seed does not hold up under A diligence. Market, go-to-market, and capital intensity get tested harder than most founders expect.
Wrong investors in the room
Generalist software funds when airline CVC, OEM venture, and a short list of specialists are the real fit.
Fuzzy capital plan
No clear link between the check, runway, and the next milestone investors will underwrite.
