Four Cornerstones

Our advisory work focuses on the four areas that are critical to early-stage social enterprises: values, impact, revenue, growth. We support each entrepreneur to recognize their own power as they develop their KPI's and achieve their significant milestones. We seek to de-risk each portfolio company, creating value as they overcome the ‘pioneer gap’.

“ADAP has been a very important partner for Drinkwell over the past two years. From regular business reviews resulting in actionable introductions to a working capital financing partner, to a site visit and their unique ‘Taco Tuesday’ experience, ADAP has been a real thought partner

as we executed on our

growth plans.”
