The Challenge

A Venture Capital firm sought to invest £multi-million in a rapidly growing FinTech, scaling from 6,000 to over 1 million users within three years. They needed to ensure the FinTech’s platform, technology, and operational structure could handle this growth, while identifying any risks and ensuring the foundation for long-term success.

How Woodhurst Helped

  • Comprehensive Technical Assessment: Leveraging our Woodhurst Blueprint, we engaged in extensive discussions with the CEO, CTO, and technical team. We conducted a deep dive into the platform’s architecture, technology stack, and organisational processes to evaluate their scalability and identify gaps.
  • In-Depth Suitability for Growth Analysis: We produced a detailed evaluation covering five critical areas: Platform Infrastructure, Product Interfaces, Code Quality and Security, Organisation Structure, and Operational Processes. This analysis pinpointed key areas for development to support their ambitious growth plans.
  • Strategic Recommendations: Delivered a highly actionable report, presenting over 20 detailed recommendations prioritised to accelerate the FinTech’s ability to scale, drive operational efficiency, and enhance security and performance.

The Outcome

  • Fast-Tracked Insight: Completed the entire assessment within two days of intensive sessions, followed by the finalised report delivered within one week, empowering the Venture Capital firm to make a highly informed decision.
  • Growth-Ready FinTech: Equipped the FinTech with a clear and actionable roadmap to scale their platform and operations to accommodate exponential user growth confidently. Our recommendations ensured the company was structurally and technologically prepared for the next stage of investment and growth.

“Coupling technical expertise with a thorough process, Woodhurst were able to quickly assess the technical viability of a growing FinTech prior to investment. In a matter of days, and without disrupting the investment target, they were able to provide us with well-documented evidence and recommendations that allowed Major Oak to make an informed investment decision. 

 

I’d happily recommend Woodhurst to organisations looking to perform a similar technical due diligence exercise.”
