xénos endeavours to introduce investors to businesses and businesses to investors in a number of different ways. When registered with xénos you are able to participate in each of the following methods of matching:

One-to-One Matching

• Businesses have the services of a xénos regional manager who works with them to establish whether the profile of investment opportunities match requirements of registered xénos investors. A network of personal contacts combined with access to the full xénos network makes this an invaluable service for investor and company.

Monthly Bulletins

• Businesses are invited to submit an anonymous 250 to 300 word summary of the investment opportunity they have on offer. These summaries, or advertisements, appear in a monthly bulletin which is sent to all registered xénos investors to ensure they are aware of the investment opportunities available to them. Investors who express positive interest in a business then receive a 2-3 page summary of the business plan and if their interest is sustained, a full Business Plan and the chance to meet with the company to further discuss the investment opportunity and their potential involvement.

Investment Fora

• Regular investment fora are held throughout Wales at which businesses have the opportunity to make a formal presentation of their business to a group of potential investors. Thereafter to informally discuss investment opportunities and to create an environment where investors can form syndicates thereby enabling larger investments to be placed.

Internet Site

• All investment propositions are posted on the xénos Internet site for world-wide exposure if the company so wishes.

Costs and Fees

• For details of fees and costs please refer to your relevant sub Menu above, Companies, Investor or advisor.
