ASHFORD & STERLING PARTNERS

We Don’t Just Raise Capital. We Shape Legacies.

At Ashford & Sterling Partners, we don’t see capital just as numbers on a spreadsheet.

We see it as an energetic force that leaves a mark in the world by shaping nations and transforming industries.

Our role is to advise with the intent to guide, to protect, and to accelerate the ambitions of those who think generations ahead.

Partnering with Rohit for our pre-seed round at Chop Finance was a game-changer. He’s not just an advisor; he’s like a trusted friend who genuinely cares about your success.
Rohit’s ability to tap into a highly targeted investor network is unmatched—he set us up with top-notch investors who truly understood our vision, and we had meaningful meetings lined up in just weeks. His razor-sharp focus on what drives results, and candid, actionable advice gave us the confidence to navigate the fundraising process with ease.
Rohit’s strategic insight and relentless dedication make him the go-to advisor for any founder looking to build credibility and close deals

Rohit at Ashford & Sterling changed the way we approached fundraising. In weeks, Rohit made introductions to major US, European, and Middle Eastern investors, expediting our timeline and reducing substantially the cost.
His emphasis on outcome-based rather than retainer based, and disciplined urgency, has now raised the standard for advisory excellence.

Working with Rohit feels like having a close friend in your corner who just happens to be a brilliant investment banker.
His approach is refreshingly different—he doesn’t waste time on fluff and gets straight to what matters. Rohit's network is incredible; he connected us with exactly the right investors, and within just a month, we were sitting down for high-quality meetings that moved our business forward.
He brings a rare mix of sharp execution and trusted guidance, and I would strongly recommend him to any founder looking to raise capital or grow strategically.

An Introduction to Ashford & Sterling Partners

Your Advantage in a Competitive World

  • Founders don't just build companies. They also carry the vision, the pressure, the payroll, and the pride. We get it because we've advised those who've risked everything to build something that matters.
  • Ashford & Sterling Partners exists to advise with integrity, align with vision, and execute with sophistication

Our Firm

  • Ashford & Sterling Partners is a discreet, Dubai-based investment banking firm built for those who move differently.
  • We specialize in raising capital, M&A, and global investor access for founders, families, and funds — with speed, clarity, and alignment.

Why We’re Different

  • No Monthly Retainers. No Surprises.
    We charge a modest, one-time engagement fee - fully creditable against the success fee when your deal closes. No bloated retainers. No burn. Just shared commitment, aligned incentives, and real skin in the game from day one.
  • Speed Without Sacrifice: Traditional bankers quote 6-8 months or more to close a deal. We deliver within 4 months because we value your time as your most valuable asset.
  • Your Deck is Sacred: You've poured your vision into your materials. We don't rebuild what you've spent months perfecting; we elevate it and move fast.
  • Confidence Raised Alongside Capital: We don't just broker a transaction. We restore clarity, conviction, and momentum - the invisible drivers of real fundraising success.

Make Your Next Move with Clarity and Confidence

Whether you’re selling your business, raising capital, or exploring strategic options, we’re here to guide you through it every step of the way.

No pressure. Just real insight and a conversation that moves you forward.
