04
Pitch-Ready Finance Function
Your CFO attends board meetings, supports investor conversations, and ensures your financial story is clear, consistent, and compelling at every touchpoint.
The Adea Difference
Not a Staffing Agency. Not a Bookkeeping Service.
CFO-Led, Not Accountant-Led
A senior CFO owns your engagement from day one. Strategy, judgment, and investor credibility come from leadership — not task execution.
Built for This Stage ($5M–$30M)
We specialize in the growth zone between early traction and institutional scale. This is where financial infrastructure matters most.
Industry-Specific Expertise
We work with Medical Device, Biotech, SaaS, CPG, DTC, Robotics, and Ed-tech companies — each with unique financial complexity and investor expectations.
A U.S.-Led CFO and a 20-Person Finance Team
Senior leadership with a deep bench. You get CFO judgment backed by a full team — without building that team yourself.
