Context Seed Services Group

Context is keenly aware of the many challenges and opportunities that seed companies face in the upcoming years. That has prompted the organization to provide a new set of business management resources directed specifically to seed companies as they address critical issues.

Context Partner Blake Sieker leads the Context Seed Services Group. Anchored by a deep experience in the industry and a team of exceptional senior executives, the Seed Services Group (SSG) will work directly with seed companies to achieve optimal outcomes among the many market dynamics they face.

Local and regional seed companies have acute need for these types of services at this point. Having already amassed significant experience and applicable work in this area, we look forward to providing regional and local seed managers with tools including the following:

• Due diligence and buyer support for seed company acquirers
• Consulting and deal management for seed company consolidations
• Assembling creative custom-fit debt and equity financing
• Negotiating with technology suppliers on behalf of seed companies
• Operational audits of seed companies
• General strategic consulting for seed companies
• Business plan development and support
• Accounting and business measurement systems
• Offering companies for sale and managing the transaction on behalf of sellers

Context fills a niche because several of our partners have been owners/principals in small and regional companies. This experience, coupled with our strategic consulting and our in-depth knowledge of the seed business uniquely positions Context to assist.
