Financing for Founders at Different Stages of Growth: The provision of all sorts of banking, strategizing, and capital market services to the dreamers who founded the companies as well as to the seasoned leaders who have successfully built them. These services are intended to help the business at every important operational milestone, like, at the startup phase, and in getting to the private phase and also getting the company to the stage where a liquidity event is planned or the public market can be accessed, getting assistance in federal grants, and in the creation of long-term shareholder value.
“The United States is entering a period of significant investment and innovation across technology, infrastructure, and strategic industries. America’s 250th anniversary is an opportunity to look ahead and focus on the innovation and infrastructure that will shape the country’s next chapter,” said Dan Simkowitz, Co-President of Morgan Stanley. “Morgan Stanley has long supported clients as they build, finance, and grow important businesses. This initiative brings that impact together through a focused effort to support the companies, technologies, and platforms that are critical to America’s long-term economic strength and competitiveness.”
Supporting the Growth Lifecycle Across Public and Private Markets
The newly launched initiative will operate in tandem with Morgan Stanley’s established growth programs, expanding the firm’s specialized private company research coverage, executive convenings such as its flagship Founders Summit and integrated client services spanning both public and private capital markets.
By aligning its institutional balance sheet and cross-divisional advisory networks with critical national priorities, Morgan Stanley aims to provide the capital foundation necessary to keep American industry competitive, technologically advanced, and operationally secure over the coming decade.
