INTELNACOM believes that great ideas are the keystone of any business venture. By bringing together strategic partners, innovators, entrepreneurs and investors in a common goal, INTELNACOM creates a world of 'bankable solutions for mankind'. Unlike other investment advisory firms, it not only provides investment opportunities but also invests in them itself and dedicates skilled resources to ensure fulfilment and high return.
INTELNACOM, through its extensive global network, actively pursues the most innovative opportunities in emerging high-tech sectors around the world. Once identified, INTELNACOM ensures each idea is placed in a sound business structure and accommodates each idea on a case-by-case basis. It provides whatever is necessary to ensure that each undertaken venture realises its full potential. Ultimately, these successes will be the cornerstone of the economy of the future, benefiting the region as well as the global community as a whole.
In bridging the gap between invention and commercialisation, INTELNACOM itself plays a vital role in the cycle from initial idea to investment (or what it calls “the 4Is-Curve”. The efficient management of the innovation process and minimisation of time-to-market remain core priorities for the Company. INTELNACOM adopts a broad approach in bringing great ideas to life, and while at times the process may be linear, it maintains a high degree of flexibility to enable proactive responses to rewarding opportunities.
Great ideas and rewarding opportunities can originate from a variety of sources. Thus success through collaboration is part of INTELNACOM's core strategy and it leverages its expertise across the global high-tech sphere to offer astute investment consultancy & advisory and project management services to independent clients including government initiatives and public sector organisations.
Key Operational and Sourcing Strategies Undertaken
• Identifying, analysing and structuring the most innovative investment opportunities across the global high-tech sector;
• Optimising these opportunities to deliver high yield performance;
• Actively participating in the innovation process and subsequent implementation to assure success and performance of each supported venture, which may see INTELNACOM serving as the sole or co-lead investor;
• Fostering and enhancing a global network of independent scientists, engineers, thinkers, academicians and innovators, in addition to institutionalised think tanks such as government sponsored R&D laboratories, research institutions, universities, NGOs and business start-ups.
Investment Approach
INTELNACOM investment is allocated in line with INTELNACOM's vision, mission and business objectives. The majority of the investment is earmarked for global high-tech opportunities and a smaller percentage is dedicated towards infrastructure projects directly benefiting the Kingdom of Bahrain. INTELNACOM's investment portfolio thus consists of two main categories; Global High-Tech opportunities and Bahrain Top Investment. This duality also balances some of the risk inherent to a pure global high-tech portfolio, although INTELNACOM's stringent evaluation regimen when assessing potential high-tech projects greatly reduces this risk overall.
Revenues are also enhanced by the provision of the aforementioned consultancy & advisory and project management services across the various high-tech sectors which comprise INTELNACOM's investment focus. Similarly, while INTELNACOM prefers participating as a lead investor in conceptual start-ups, it remains flexible to investing in early-stage companies which offer solid growth and potential. Additionally, from a strategic and investment perspective, INTELNACOM may buy-out promising patents and intellectual property rights to technologies and concepts with promising futures.
