Build

Once a project is chosen, our real work begins. Our first goal is to move from a broad contextual understanding to detailed knowledge of the project’s entire ecosystem. With this in place we can produce a detailed business model and a long-term financial plan, before moving on to the actual development of all aspects of the project.

For each project we create an entirely new company as the managing entity, which operates as a subsidiary of Tellus. Project investors are given equity in this project company, which gives them executive control over its direction and outcomes.

The full build process varies a lot from project to project, but everything is done in tight coordination with the investing partner.
