Proxis Advisors bridges the gap between cannabis operators and capital. We prepare your business for investment, structure your raise, and position you in front of the right investors.
Every service is designed around the realities of cannabis fundraising—regulatory complexity, limited institutional capital, and the need for operator-grade financials.
Get investment-ready from deck to data room. We audit your materials, sharpen your narrative, and prepare you for institutional-grade diligence.
Whether you're acquiring or being acquired, we guide deal evaluation, valuation analysis, and integration planning specific to cannabis.
Models that reflect real cannabis economics—cultivation yields, excise tax layers, 280E impact, and state-by-state regulatory costs.
We help you articulate your moat, prepare for tough questions, and build the documentation that passes institutional scrutiny.
SAFE notes, convertible notes, revenue shares, and equity rounds—structured to protect founders while attracting capital in a high-risk vertical.
Most cannabis advisors have never raised capital themselves. They've never built a deck at 2am, defended a valuation to a skeptical fund, or felt the pressure of a closing deadline.
We have. And we've also sat on the other side—evaluating deals, flagging red flags, and deciding what makes it past the first screen.
That dual perspective is our edge. We know what investors actually diligence—because we've done it.
We built pitch decks, ran fundraising processes, negotiated terms, and closed rounds. We know the grind from the inside.
We reviewed deals, flagged risks, assessed management teams, and decided what got past the first look. We know what kills deals.
