What Our Clients and Investors Have to Say

  • “The opportunity to work with Misha represented a giant step forward in our capital raise efforts. These past 12 months have been an extremely challenging environment for investment managers, and Misha and the team helped us navigate through to major success. It has been a pleasure partnering with their organization.”

    Chris Lay and James Parker

    Co-Founders and General Partners of LEONID Capital Partners

  • “We’ve worked with Misha across four separate transactions, and each time he’s delivered. Beyond execution, what stands out most is his ability to bring new, highly relevant family office relationships to the table, every single time. Misha has a deep understanding of how to position opportunities, a sharp read on investor appetite, and a disciplined, strategic approach that sets him apart. He’s become a trusted partner, and we look forward to continuing to work together.”

    Pavel Chernyshev and Vijay Mehta

    CoFounders and General Partners at Arkview Capital

  • “Misha and I have worked on three deals together, and he’s consistently delivered. Misha does an excellent job bringing in the right mix of investors, both institutional and individual, for opportunities that truly fit. He has built a deep, diverse network, and with our lean internal team, Misha has effectively become an extension of our efforts, helping us not only source capital from family offices but also think strategically about structure and execution. Beyond the deals, he’s become a trusted partner and friend, someone who brings real value and plays the long game.”

    Filipp Chebotarev

    Founder & CIO, Cambridge SPG

  • “Misha was a huge help on a fast-moving deal that was closing in several weeks. He quickly identified a family office that was a strong fit, got them up to speed, and helped us get the transaction across the finish line. I was impressed by his ability to be targeted in his approach and his understanding of the nuances of the deal and the fast-moving closing date. Oftentimes, people say what they will do, but rarely live up to their expectations. Misha lived up to it.”

    Andriy Mikhyaylovskyy

    CoFounder/General Partner at Fifth Wall

  • “I had a great experience working with Misha. He was pivotal in closing our seed round in March 2024. Despite the challenging capital-raising environment, Misha’s efforts were crucial in helping us secure a lead investor and complete the round. His team also provided excellent support by reorganizing our pitch deck and facilitating introductions to several VCs who ultimately invested.”

    Namik Soltan

    Founder & CEO, GNGR Labs

  • “Misha has been instrumental to our growth. Not only did he help us secure early capital, but he’s continued to open doors with strategic clients in our target market of ultra-high-net-worth individuals. His understanding of our value proposition, combined with his ability to articulate the opportunity and make meaningful connections, has made him an extension of our team. He’s genuinely invested in our success.”

    Portfolio Manager, $9B+ AUM RIA

  • “I’ve invested in over half a dozen deals with Misha over the years, and the experience has been consistently excellent, strong returns, thoughtful deal selection, and a level of access that’s hard to come by. He takes the time to understand what I’m looking for, presents opportunities with clarity, and always moves with integrity. What started as a business relationship has grown into a real friendship. He’s someone I trust, not just with capital, but with my time and attention, which says a lot in this business.”
