Partnership brief
Partnership type, location, supply capacity, essential criteria and unsuitable arrangements.
SERVICE
Greater Bay Area Business Matching Support
Give a first meeting something worth continuing. Prepare partnership criteria, candidate research and follow-up for focused Greater Bay Area conversations.
Greater Bay Area Partner Research
Turn a need into a clear direction.
Start with partnership criteria, not the length of a contact list: what you offer, what the other party needs and what remains to be checked. Our visit gallery and institutional cases illustrate exchange support, not evidence of completed deals.
SCOPE
What we can work on together.
Candidate comparison
Candidates within the agreed search scope, reasons for fit, known information and open questions.
Introduction and question pack
A company and product introduction with discussion points on capability, delivery and commercial arrangements.
Meeting and follow-up record
Coordination where the other party is willing to engage, followed by discussion notes, information requests and next-step owners.
OUR PROCESS
A clear focus at every step.
Define a workable partnership brief
Share product information, target areas, preferred arrangements and constraints. Rule out unsuitable directions first.
Research and compare candidates
Organise available background information and compare fit and uncertainties against the same criteria.
Support discussions and record follow-up
Coordinate willing parties and record questions that need more information or specialist advice. A meeting is not treated as a deal.
What can I prepare before we start?
Useful matching starts with filters
Define the geography, capabilities, customer profile and commercial conditions of a suitable partner, including clear exclusions. Choose research, presentation support, introduction coordination or follow-up. Each candidate should carry a source and a reason for fit, not simply appear on a long list.
Prepare for the first review
- A non-confidential company and product introduction.
- Required partner criteria and disqualifying conditions.
- A publishable collaboration model, decision owner and next step.

FAQ
You might be wondering.
More questions? Get in touch.
Do you guarantee an agent or a signed partnership?
No. The deliverables are a defined brief, candidate research and discussion support. Replies, meetings and commercial agreements depend on the parties' requirements and decisions.
Is candidate research a formal due diligence service?
No. We distinguish known information from open questions, but do not provide legal, financial or credit assurance. Formal due diligence and contracts require appropriate professional advisers.
Can you work with a shortlist we already have?
Yes. We can prepare comparison criteria, introductory material and meeting questions, then support discussions and record follow-up as required.
Should we start matching before choosing a target city?
Clarify the market, customers and supply needs first. If the market choice is still open, start with market preparation and use the resulting criteria to guide partner research.
