Our Services

Capital Markets Advisory

We help gaming companies and funds raise capital with speed, precision, and strategic focus.

For gaming companies: We lead equity, debt, and hybrid raises, including growth equity, venture debt, recapitalizations, and secondaries to support scaling and increase valuation..

For funds: We connect GPs with capital from family offices, fund-of-funds, HNWIs, and institutions, supporting co-investments and targeted LP outreach.

With deep investor relationships and a proprietary outreach platform, we deliver tailored, efficient access to growth capital.

M&A Advisory

We advise founders and growth-stage companies — especially in gaming — on strategic exits, acquisitions, and recapitalizations. From positioning and deal sourcing to negotiation and close, we deliver sharp execution with investor-level insight.

For funds, we support portfolio companies through M&A processes and help identify high-impact acquisition targets aligned with investment theses.

Growth Consulting

Raising capital is just the start — we help gaming companies scale with marketing and sales strategies that drive traction, revenue, and valuation.

From go-to-market planning to performance marketing and sales enablement, we support you in turning investment into real growth.

Their Words, Not Ours

“The process with Lightus Capital has been excellent. The quality of investors they’ve brought in is impressive, and I especially appreciate that every introduction is with someone they’ve already vetted and spoken to. Keep the process as it is. Great work.”

Loic Bertoli
Head of Investor Relations @ MiddleGame Ventures Fund II

“This has been incredibly helpful. We’re constantly stretched across multiple priorities, so having a partner we can rely on for fundraising support has been incredible.”

Managing Partner @ Mercaton Special Situation Fund I

“We’ve been very pleased with the quality of investors Lightus brought in. They aligned perfectly with our criteria. We were specifically targeting family offices and HNWIs, and unlike other providers who often introduced DFIs or institutions, Lightus truly understood and delivered on our needs.”
