Testimonials
Sohang Chatterjee, Co-Founder, CEO and DirectorPraesidia Biotherapeutics, Inc. (Private)“Praesidia is my third startup where I have successfully raised equity investment. Both previous companies I started and exited were funded by large VCs. As we look at the last six months of working with Allele in completing our Series A financing, we are delighted we decided to work with them. From our introductory call in December 2020, to signing our term sheet and subsequent closing of our financing in July 2021, the Allele Team worked with us like an extension of management team. They were fair and forthcoming with the partnership terms and reasonable in resolving roadblocks along the way. Most importantly, Allele helped prepare and refine our corporate deck, rehearse our interactions with investors, and fine tune our broader corporate strategy and timelines. Allele also brought in several esteemed KOLs to our company, and attracted an extensive network of life science institutional investors, family offices and accredited investors to our financing. Going forward, we look forward to the continued insights and meaningful contributions from Allele to ensure Praesidia achieves its milestones and inflection points in order to become a truly impactful biotherapeutic organization for patients in need.” |

Howard Berman, PhD, Co-Founder and CEOCoya Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: COYA)“Coya Therapeutics is funded today because of the expertise and professionalism of the team at Allele Capital. Their knowledge of the scientific landscape and capital markets is superior. What struck me quite profoundly was their ability to quickly identify the value proposition of our underlying science and ask the right questions. Further, their institutional and accredited investor network is impressive, while the cost to access capital is much lower than traditional VCs, and certainly much faster. The team at Allele Capital are committed to doing things ethically, honestly, transparently, and quickly. All recipes necessary for success in a clinical-stage company like Coya that aims to deliver therapies to patients fastidiously and with compassion.” |

(NASDAQ: GANX)“Working with Allele Capital reduced the risk of execution dramatically – their extensive industry knowledge in life sciences and contacts in the capital markets enabled a very predictable path for our company. Their entire team was engaged in our transaction and contributed in numerous ways to ensure the entire funding process was well executed. They provided value-added advice, proprietary investment, as well as institutional and accredited investors to support our company in a partnership-like approach. I would certainly recommend working with Allele Capital.” |

I have had the fortune of knowing Shawn for about a decade. His knowledge of how to navigate the banking and institutional universe is second to none. Allele’s advice was instrumental in developing our relationship with not only the right bank, but the right people within the bank who took the time to properly understand our technology. Allele is in a unique position, having navigated the waters of building and financing private and public biotechnology companies for many years.
