Finance Advisory for Real-World Growth, Turnaround, and Deal Situations
Sharp, fast, and committed.
This is strategic finance for the real world. Done by people who know what it means to carry responsibility – not just slides.
In an industry where advice is easy – but execution is everything – we stand apart. Evolve’s Strategic Finance Advisory is built for biotech, life science, and tech companies that need more than just insight.
You need action. You need partners who understand your science, your urgency, your investor dynamics.
We are an interdisciplinary team of seasoned operators: former CFOs, biotech controllers, venture builders, restructuring leads. We don’t sit on the sidelines. We coordinate, execute, and take responsibility. Through our Managed Finance platform, we stay deeply embedded in the day-to-day — which means we don’t just know the theory, we live the complexity of your finance operations. Daily.
From designing resilient financing architectures and navigating strategic transactions to supporting in crisis and high-growth moments — we deliver with precision, speed, and grit. Our network of international tax advisors, audit firms, legal partners, and transaction experts ensures that nothing falls through the cracks. Whether you’re raising, restructuring, merging or scaling — we are your partner at eye level.
Crisis & Transition
Interim CRO, Restructuring, & Operational Turnarounds.
When pressure peaks, structure cracks, and confidence fades – we step in. Our Crisis & Transition practice provides interim leadership for biotech, tech, and life science companies navigating acute stress: collapsing liquidity, failed commercialization, internal disruption, market share erosion, or derailed projects. We don’t analyze from the sidelines — we embed, lead, and deliver under fire.
With 3–12 month CRO engagements, we stabilize operations, restore visibility, and design recoveries that last. Whether you’re a company in distress, a shareholder with a critical asset, or a board seeking control – we act fast, with depth and precision
Our CRO Playbook
- Situational Control
We rapidly decode complexity. Our financial toolkit brings clarity to fragmented data environments – enabling cash control, early warning signals, and fast scenario planning. We often bring order where ERP and BI systems failed. - Strategic Response Design
In close alignment with management, we co-develop a roadmap that combines tactical survival with long-term viability. We know what works – because we’ve seen what fails. - Execution, Not Delegation
Our interim CROs lead transformation from the inside: restructuring cost bases, fixing operating models, working through insolvency risks, managing stakeholder conflicts – and making the difficult calls. - Stakeholder Management with Precision
We speak every stakeholder’s language. Boards, secured lenders, employees, regulators, shareholders, the press – we connect, de-escalate, and regain trust. - Sustainable Turnaround
Our goal isn’t short-term survival – it’s long-term resilience. We design operating models that endure and prepare your company for the next capital cycle.
Why We Deliver When Others Talk
- Deep Industry Fluency
We don’t just bring generic restructuring templates – we understand regulatory pathways, market dynamics, pricing realities, and clinical-to-commercial failure points. This depth fuels credible planning and stakeholder alignment. - Exceptional Finance Expertise
Control starts with numbers. From liquidity bridges and 13-week cash flows to equity solutions and debt restructuring – we bring advanced finance capabilities that often unlock the path forward. - Real Leaders, Real Operators
Our CROs are not solo acts. Backed by interdisciplinary teams of controllers, restructuring experts, commercial strategists and ex-corporate leaders – we plug in as a unit. - Speed & Impact
You don’t have time for discovery phases. We bring our own playbook, operating tools, benchmarks, and crisis comms templates – so you move fast and right.
Who Calls Us In
We’re engaged by:
- Companies in crisis – facing burn-outs, breakdowns or board-level pressure
- Shareholders, banks, and investors – protecting value under threat
- Supervisory boards and lenders – needing neutral, competent leadership
- Executives in overwhelmed teams – who need experienced firepower, now
We Don’t Just Advise.
We Step In and Deliver.
Growth Enablement
CFO-as-a-Service for Scale-Ups and Investor Readiness.
Scaling is a privilege — but it’s also a pressure cooker. At Evolve, we partner with high-growth biotech, tech, and life science, companies when growth becomes too complex to manage with spreadsheets, siloed advisors, and overstretched founders. Our Growth Enablement services plug in seasoned CFOs and interdisciplinary teams — with full financial infrastructure, exceptional industry fluency, and the empathy to work at eye level.
We don’t just advise on what’s needed — we help build it, fix it, and drive it.
What We Solve
Rapid growth creates invisible risks: exploding cost structures, fragile funding strategies, regulatory blind spots, and overburdened teams. Founders face investor expectations, product timelines, and capital constraints — often in markets they’re still learning. We bring clarity, structure, and real financial control to the table.
You get a sparring partner with:
- Deep corporate experience in scaling organizations
- Industry intimacy that understands medical markets, reimbursement logics, clinical cost centers and SaaS dynamics
- The capability to translate ambition into investor-ready models and sustainable financial architectures
How We Solve
We support your executive team across five critical dimensions:
- Strategic Planning & Scenario Modeling
We help define achievable growth goals and align your cost base, resource needs, and capital runway. Our modeling goes beyond budget — it connects with investor logic and market realities. - Financing Architecture
We structure capital stacks that work — including equity, mezzanine, grants, venture debt and long-term instruments. We understand how to build funding strategies for regulated, international, IP-heavy businesses. - Investor Readiness & Fundraising Support
From decks and data rooms to board-level storytelling and negotiation prep, we ensure you’re not just fundable — you’re credible and compelling. - Infrastructure & Systems
Growth needs foundation. We implement finance stacks, KPI dashboards, payment workflows and governance that scale. Always balancing automation with human context. - Execution at Eye Level
We step in as fractional CFOs, co-piloting with your leadership. We know how to run board meetings, negotiate term sheets, talk to VCs — and manage pressure when the plan hits friction.
Why We’re Different
- Exceptional CFO Talent
Our people aren’t freelancers. They’re former corporate finance leaders, VCs, biotech controllers, M&A leads — embedded in your reality, not learning on the job. - Deep Industry Knowledge
We know the rules, roadblocks, and rhythms of regulated tech, biotech and diagnostics — and bring benchmarks that matter to your growth phase. - Interdisciplinary Force
You get more than a CFO. You get a plug-and-play team: analysts, controllers, data experts, compliance minds. Coordinated, fast, and reliable. - Capital Market Savvy
We understand what investors need to hear — and what they won’t tolerate. We bridge your vision with their checklists.
Growth Brings Complexity
We Bring Clarity.
Transaction Advisory
Buy-/Sell-Side Support From Screening to Closing
You’ve built something meaningful. You’ve invested years of work, creativity, and risk into a product, a team, a vision. When it’s time to raise capital, sell your company, or structure a partnership — the outcome should reflect the true value of what you’ve created.
That’s where we come in.
At Evolve, we support founders, shareholders, and boards in navigating high-stakes transactions — not just as advisors, but as partners who take responsibility for execution. We understand the emotional, strategic, and financial layers of a deal. And we make sure your journey pays off.

Whether you’re seeking growth capital, a strategic buyer, or a joint venture – we help define the right path, identify matching opportunities, and align with your long-term goals. - Financial & Commercial Due Diligence
We prepare you to face the market with confidence. We analyze what buyers, VCs and partners will look for — and help you get the data, story, and structure right. - Valuation & Structured Negotiation
We defend your value. From classic equity sales to licensing models and earn-outs, especially in life sciences – we know how to shape contracts that reflect real worth and minimize future risk. - Data Room, Coordination & Storytelling
We organize your numbers, documents, and deal narrative into a coherent, credible, and attractive profile. Investors see a well-run, high-potential business — not a scramble behind the scenes. - Stakeholder Management
Founders should focus on vision — we handle the heat. We coordinate advisors, align shareholders, and manage external expectations to keep the deal moving. - Post-Deal Integration Planning
A good deal isn’t over at closing. We help set the blueprint for what happens next — so teams, systems, and ambitions stay on track after signature
Why Founders Trust Us
- We’ve Sat on Your Side of the Table
We know what it feels like to build a company. Our teams have led deals from inside biotech, tech, and diagnostics firms — not just as consultants, but as CFOs, transaction leads, and founders themselves. - We Handle Complexity — So You Can Stay Focused
From investor questions and legal reviews to scenario planning and spreadsheet fire drills — we protect your time and energy. - Full-Cycle Expertise
We’re not here for just one phase. We stay through the whole lifecycle — from early planning to final integration. No hand-offs, no fragmentation. - Execution Power
