WHAT DOES
NIMBLD
MEAN?
/ˈnɪmb(ə)ld/
According to the Cambridge Dictionary, nimble means:
"quick and exact either in movement or thoughts"
We aspire to not only be nimble, but to become 'NIMBLD'.
​
The Startup Ecosystem is the single largest driver of innovation worldwide.
​
Yet the overwhelming majority of startups FAIL.
​
Each startup that fails is an idea that dies, and in the majority of cases the reasons why have nothing to do with the idea itself - but with the building blocks of what makes a business truly ready to reach the heights that founders dream of.
A business that can go the distance, from an idea to a large company that achieves true SCALE.
We bring these building blocks to you.
We are a startup accelerant composed of C-suite level specialists and startup founders passionate about innovation: know-how is the ultimate growth multiplier and is a major blocker for many startups - and we don't believe it should be this difficult to access.
We build innovation, from Startup to Scaleup.
We love great ideas and are always happy to meet
visionary people who have them - let's talk!
WHAT IS THE
VALLEY OF DEATH?
It's normal for a product to appeal to different types of users at different points in its lifecycle, often with widely varying needs and use cases, creating a user needs gap (or 'chasm') as numbers grow. Additionally, startups go through periods between receiving investment (whether from founders, friends and family, or angels/VCs) and the moment where revenue begins to exceeed expenditure. These factors create a series of various critical periods that every startup will encounter on its way to success.
This is where most startups FAIL.
​
This is colloquially known as The Valley of Death,
and you will see it more than once in your startup journey.

THE SOLUTION
THE NIMBLD INDEX
We created a proprietary battery of tests and metrics for each key area of your business,
for a full 'health check' on your startup. Like a north star, this Index metric becomes a key indicator of progress, to be reassessed at regular intervals to monitor progress, trends, and uncover areas in need of further improvement - which we then help you implement.
PUTTING IT INTO PRACTICE
We anchor our work around our Deep Dive Days, where we take a war room style approach to take a close look at either the full picture or specific areas of your business. This is followed by a detailed report on findings and steps forward - along with your nimbld score.
From here, we connect you with the missing pieces to get your startup where it needs to go, some of what we do includes:
-
Fractional CxO
-
Project Development
-
Investment readiness & matchmaking
-
Product R&D
-
Data warehousing & analytics
-
Startup-to-Scaleup transition
