A hybrid model
Capital and operating work, structured together. You pick the door that fits your stage, and the studio stays the same.
Regenerate Capital uses a hybrid model: capital plus operating work in one relationship. Four instruments (invest, incubate, accelerate, acquire) are combined case by case, and the studio is paid in equity, cash, commission or in-kind, agreed in writing before work starts.
The premise
Most founders raise from people who have never built anything. Many end up with money and no help, or help from advisors who bill hours and disappear.
We close that gap. Every engagement pairs capital or equity with a written scope of operating work. When we invest, we work. When we work, we own part of the outcome.
Start with one instrument and add others as you grow. A studio company becomes an investment. An acceleration client often becomes one too.
The practices
Pre-seed to Series A capital with an operator attached. Studio cheques typically up to $100K, with larger rounds built alongside our syndicate and partners.
Your idea, our team. For founders with a strong idea who need co-founders, a first product and a path to capital.
Embedded operators for companies already moving, from five people to fifty.
M&A and exits. Buy-side, sell-side, and patient acquisition of community businesses, backed by our capital partners.
Engagement structures
Indicative only. Every engagement is decided case by case and agreed in writing before work starts.
| Instrument | What you get | What we take | Typical duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Capital | A studio cheque, round-building, investor introductions and a seat at the table | Equity, SAFE or token warrants, case by case | Long term, through the next rounds |
| Advisory equity | Strategy, pattern recognition, introductions and accountability | Advisory equity with vesting | Monthly sessions plus on-call support |
| Fractional leadership | An embedded COO, CMO or Chief of Staff | Cash, equity or a mix | Set days per week, 3 to 12 months |
| Formation | Thesis or co-founders, founding capital, structure, first team, AI stack | Co-founder equity agreed at formation | Through the first institutional round |
| Distribution | SEO, GEO, community and partnerships that get you found | Equity, cash or in-kind | Sprints of 6 to 12 weeks, then ongoing |
| M&A and exits | Buy-side, sell-side, exit readiness and transaction capital | Commission, equity or cash, case by case | Typically 3 to 12 months per transaction |

Questions
Case by case, in equity, cash, commission or in-kind, depending on what we bring. It’s always agreed in writing before work starts.
No. You run the company. We take a minority position or an advisory seat, and we earn our influence through the work.
A few. We say no far more than yes, because every company needs real hours from real operators.
We’re probably not your best fit. Our capital always comes with operating work, because that’s where we add the most.
Yes. We’re based in the Eastern Townships and work remote-first with founders anywhere, in English, French and Spanish.
We plan for it early. Through the Acquire practice and our partners, we help prepare, position and run the process, all the way to IPO or sale.
