Your questions, answered.
If you need more clarity, share your details below and we’ll schedule a confidential discussion.
Is Yaniva a training course or a consulting engagement?
It’s a hybrid, execution-focused model. We combine structured mentoring with hands-on support for governance, MIS and strategy, anchored in your real numbers and context.
Do you guarantee an IPO in 36 months?
No one can ethically guarantee a listing timeline. What Yaniva guarantees is a disciplined roadmap and support to make your company IPO-ready. Actual listing depends on markets, bankers, regulators and your execution.
We are not fully compliant today. Can we still apply?
Yes. Many SMEs begin the journey with significant gaps. Phase 1 of the program is explicitly designed to identify, prioritise and address those gaps in a practical, business-friendly manner.
Is this program restricted to certain sectors?
Yaniva is sector-agnostic but focuses on SMEs with strong fundamentals, recurring demand and growth visibility across manufacturing, B2B services, consumer and niche tech.
