Reactor Model

Most incubators take a vertically restrictive view of the companies and the products they take to market. RBTI takes a loosely-coupled view of the relationships and opportunities that can power emergent companies.

More important than capital resources, RBTI seeks to establish relationships among companies and partners within the reactor that accelerate and build reliable revenue growth. Powered by access to markets and combinationsof product offerings within the reactor, RBTI succeeds from equity appreciation of the companies we power and by revenue derived from strategic relationships and major sales opportunities we establish.

In the case above, a company meeting the market focus criteria, needs assistance with capital structure, funding and integration services and immediate revenue opportunity. RBTI would evaluate these needs for compatibility within the reactor companies’ capacity, capability, application focus and market fit. RBTI then creates the alliances, equity and funding arrangements and moves into market making.
