Chapter 01 · A New York Practice
On the desk
that funds you.
Our New York team sits where capital flows. Half the studio is ex-investment-banking and ex-buy-side; the other half runs investor narrative, deck systems, and data rooms. We opened the studio in 2019 to be next to our clients' bankers, lawyers, and lead investors — not three time zones away.
TEAM · ON-SITE
14
Capital advisory, IR strategy, and narrative design. Half the team came out of bulge-bracket banks and growth-equity firms.
ROUNDS · SUPPORTED
63
Series A through C engagements supported in the last 24 months — from narrative through close.
4,800sqft
One studio bay, a 10-seat data-room, and two private call rooms for diligence sessions and banker calls.
INVESTORS · IN ROLODEX
1,200+
Active relationships across growth equity, venture, family offices, and strategic investors — East Coast-weighted.

Chapter 02 · Address & Map
The exact
front door.

Chapter 03 · Why Flatiron, Why New York
Three reasons
we're here.
We could have taken a Midtown tower or a Hudson Yards loft. We chose Flatiron because of who walks past the door, who's a 12-minute taxi away, and the rhythm the neighborhood enforces.
REASON · 01
Inside the capital corridor
Most growth-equity, late-stage venture, and crossover investors run desks within a 20-block radius. Our calendar runs on walking meetings — we don't book Zoom for things that should happen in person.
OUTCOMEMost diligence sessions are walk-and-talks.
REASON · 02
Where founders raise
More than 60% of our active New York engagements involve a fundraise inside the next 18 months. Being on the street that hosts those rounds removes a layer of friction we used to absorb from Miami.
OUTCOMESame-day banker, partner, and counsel intros.
REASON · 03
A specific kind of operator
New York rewards directness, preparation, and pace. The team we hire here is a particular flavor — finance-fluent, narrative-fluent, and unafraid to push back in a room. The studio's voice reflects that.

Chapter 04 · Visiting Us
What to expect
at the door.
The Flatiron studio runs as a working investor-prep space. Most visits are scoped: a banker session, a working draft of the deck, a board-meeting dry-run, or a founder-investor coffee. Practical details below.
BEFORE YOU ARRIVE
A few things that make the visit smoother.
Confirm the visit 48 hours in advance, bring a government-issued photo ID for the building's lobby system, and arrive 10 minutes early. A BBD team member meets every guest in the lobby — please don't go up unaccompanied.
Dress for the meeting, not the studio. The team works smart-casual; if you're heading to a banker meeting after, business is welcome. Phones, laptops and recording devices are fine. Guest Wi-Fi is fast; outlets and second monitors are at every working position.
There's no on-site parking. The garage on West 24th between 5th and 6th is the closest. The R/W at 23rd Street and the F/M at 23rd are each one block from our door.

Chapter 05 · Getting Here
