If you are preparing your business for investment, your financials, pitch deck and growth plan are only part of the picture. Investors also want reassurance that the business is secure, resilient and well managed behind the scenes.
This guide is designed to help business owners understand the IT and cyber security areas that may be questioned during investment due diligence. It explains why technology risk matters, what investors may look for and how a practical IT health check can help identify gaps before they become a problem.
What’s included in the guide?
Inside, we cover the key areas growing businesses should review before investor conversations gather pace, including user access, multi-factor authentication, device management, backups, data protection, Microsoft 365 security, documentation and ongoing IT support.
The guide also highlights common red flags that can slow down due diligence, such as unmanaged devices, unclear permissions, untested backups, unsupported software and security processes that are not properly documented.
Who is it for?
It is aimed at SMEs, life sciences businesses and other growing organisations that want to feel more prepared before speaking to investors, funders or potential buyers. You do not need to be technical to use it; the focus is on practical questions that help you understand how ready your business is.
If you are unsure whether your IT setup would stand up to investor scrutiny, the guide is a useful place to start. It will help you spot the areas that may need attention and understand where an IT health check could give you greater confidence before due diligence begins.
