Strategy
Finding more value in business doesn’t have to be difficult. Sometimes it’s already there and just waiting to be discovered.
Many companies search for a purpose. StageGate LP was born with one: to help the people that do the truly amazing things do more of it. We target companies that invest, often at great risk, in their own ideas and people. And by systematically connecting these companies to undiscovered value we aim to be their tailwind as they continue on their path toward achievement and success.
How We Help Our Clients
Our suite of services has been deliberately developed to anticipate the broad and otherwise disparate demands of our clients’ product development
initiatives. Our Strategy, Design, and Product Development units each include a mix of services specifically scoped and implemented to ensure that no stone goes unturned.
The specific processes, tools, and final deliverables vary based on the demands of each project but some specific examples include:
Strategy documents.
Comprehensive, actionable content that can be structured to serve as the final reference collateral for all stakeholders to a project or program. Content tailored to include specific elements relevant to analysis being delivered.
Pro Forma Regulatory Forms and Documents.
Completed forms reflecting any relevant final financial or technical calculations and analysis for submission to appropriate agency or body. Patent applications and supporting documentation.
Digital Models. Tangible Prototypes.
Final design files available in a variety of formats (e.g. STEP, IGES, 3DM, IPT) with iteration histories. Tangible prototypes complete with specification datasheet and manufacturability assessment.
GAP Assessments.
Where you are. Where you want to be. What stands in the margin and what actions are needed to reduce or eliminate them.
Virtual and In-Person Workshops.
Both lead by StageGate facilitators. Virtual sessions typically conducted using client’s preferred platform to facilitate an aspect or sticking point of an ongoing project with in-person events recommended where team building is a core goal of the program.
Surveys, Focus Groups, and Polling
Data. Data. Data. When it comes to gaining a better understanding of target markets, user experience, optimal commercial terms, and the like there is no better intelligence than hearing from your audience directly. We draft the question sets, conduct the process, and deliver summarized results as well as the raw data.
How We Impact Our Clients’ Outcomes
Regardless of which specific service or services we deliver for a client, they are always benefiting in one or more of the following ways:
- Improving chances of achieving successful technical outcome.
- Improving likelihood for, or scale of, successful commercial outcome.
- Growing enterprise value.
We’re the believers that progress is a function of countless incremental commitments to success.
StageGate LP is a leader in research & development credits, technical solutions, news, and insight. We connect the world’s innovators to tools that let them dream more, attempt more, and achieve more.
But that’s not where our mission ends. We believe that profit and principles are not mutually exclusive. They reinforce one another. And doing the right thing – by our people, our clients, and our society – is also the best thing for our business. And so each year StageGate L.P. directs a fixed percentage of its’ profit to one or more philanthropic initiatives aimed at having a material impact. So whether you work for StageGate or with us, know that together our work is having a positive impact on the world around us.

Mission Statement
We’re all familiar with what we see when we look in the rear view mirror on mankind’s continued journey toward technological advancement: Fire. The wheel. The calendar. Concrete. The printing press. Electricity. The semi-conductor. The telephone. Penicillin. The airplane. The internet. Our mission at StageGate Partners is to facilitate the amazing people, teams, companies, and communities working to achieve the breakthroughs and advances that will add to this list in the future and improve the world for us all. That’s the big picture.
We execute on this mission through a thoughtful combination of specific service capabilities, a mindset that defines success and failure first in terms of whether an idea receives an opportunity to be successful before moving onto technical or commercial realities, and by targeting clients that are committed to investing in their ideas and their people that have them. We are successful because we (1) free our clients to focus on their specific area(s) of expertise without having to compromise their high standards in other areas critical to the development process; and (2) offer commercial terms structured to let each client choose the model that works best for them, regardless of where they are on the growth curve.
We pride ourselves both on consistently delivering specific value with each client engagement as well as on doing our part to make sure that good ideas have every possible opportunity to reach the wider world. We are committed to our clients’ success and see ourselves as a tailwind on their journey. Contact our team today to learn more about our services and how we might add specific value to your work.
