Find opportunities that fit.
Ask ISC for an introduction.

NEXUS monitors your markets daily. When something fits, you get a brief in your portal showing why it matters, what is confirmed and what you can do next.

Detect the change

NEXUS uses AI to scan sources such as licensing updates, tenders and project announcements. Your capabilities, target markets and minimum deal size guide the selection.

Check it locally

ISC draws on direct relationships with operators, project owners and regulators. Where a contact is available, we ask what has changed, who can act and whether funding is in place.

Make the first move

Review the opportunity in your portal. Ask ISC to check a missing fact or request an introduction. ISC approaches the counterpart and connects you when both sides are interested.

For investors

Revisit a project
when the facts change.

Set your preferred ticket, stage, markets and investment criteria. Review matching projects, the stated use of funds, the available evidence and the questions still open.

If a project depends on its first buyer, a documented purchase commitment can give you a reason to reopen the file. Request the evidence or ask ISC to arrange a conversation with the project lead.

Included in your membership

  • Daily monitoring against your business or investment criteria.
  • A brief in your portal when there is a match or an important update.
  • Access to ISC intelligence and support on any deal you bring to us, including local checks and introductions where both parties agree.

When ISC helps execute a deal

Membership covers intelligence and guidance on every deal you discuss with ISC. For introductions or hands-on execution, we agree terms for that deal in writing before the work starts. These can be a success fee, royalties or equity, depending on the project and ISC’s contribution.

Who will check whether the buyer is still looking?

A market announcement lands on your desk. Before you quote, someone needs to find the buyer, check the deadline and ask whether a budget exists.

Public alerts & AI tools
Useful for spotting announcements at low cost. Your team follows up to find out whether the opportunity is still open to you.
Your own team
US$5,200 a year if a colleague spends two hours a week at US$50/hour for 52 weeks. Your team still needs the right local contacts to check whether the buyer is taking proposals.
A freelance market researcher
US$2,400–6,720 a year at eight hours a month, using Upwork’s published US$25–70 hourly range. Local introductions and deal support depend on the assignment. See hourly rates.
NEXUS US$1,200 a year · deal terms separate
One brief brings together the signal found by AI, the original source and what ISC can check through operators, regulators and local contacts. Bring the brief to the same team when you need an introduction or help moving the deal forward.

What is your team’s time worth?

At US$50 an hour, two hours a month equals the annual membership. The figures above illustrate research costs at the hours shown. Any agreed deal compensation is additional.

Membership questions

Will I receive an opportunity every day?

NEXUS monitors daily. Your portal shows a brief when an opportunity fits your criteria or a material fact changes.

Can I bring a deal I found myself?

Yes. Bring ISC a buyer, partner or project you are already considering. Your membership includes access to our intelligence and team to review what is known, identify missing information and discuss your next move.

When do separate deal terms apply?

If you ask ISC to make an introduction or help execute a transaction, we agree the scope, compensation and trigger in writing first. You can discuss an opportunity with ISC under your membership before deciding whether to proceed.

How do success fees, royalties and equity work?

A success fee is payable on the outcome agreed for that deal. For a licensing project, the parties might agree royalties on defined sales. For a longer venture-building role, they might agree an equity stake. Each arrangement sets its own terms.

What can ISC check on the ground?

Depending on local access, ISC can ask the project owner who makes the decision, whether funding is confirmed and whether proposals are still welcome. Regulators can clarify policy or sector needs. The buyer confirms purchasing intent.

What happens after I request an introduction?

ISC clarifies your objective, agrees any deal terms with you and asks the counterpart whether they want to meet. If they agree, ISC connects you with the context for a focused first conversation.

How does this work for an investor?

Share your stage, ticket size and geographic criteria. ISC can discuss matching projects and open diligence questions. Any transaction role or compensation is agreed separately under the applicable framework, with relevant interests disclosed.

Or skip straight to the description below.

Your preliminary assessment appears here. You can then email your criteria to ISC for a personal opportunity check.

This opens an email to ISC. If we can confirm a match is still open and shareable, we reply with the source, the date checked and the next action. If we cannot verify one, we tell you.

These preliminary routes are generated automatically from available regulatory information. Confirming a real need, an interested contact, and ISC's ability to act on it happens next, with our team.
