About
Verana helps complex infrastructure and industrial companies speak clearly to investors, partners, and acquirers.
The firm sits at the point where engineering reality, market structure, and capital narrative need to align. In these sectors, the constraints are real, the buyers are demanding, and the standard for explanation has to be higher.

Elaine Salvador
Background
12+ years in investment banking and private equity across Stifel, Lazard, Lightsource BP, and H.I.G. Capital.
Focus
Verana works where technical complexity has outpaced capital-market fluency: climate, grid, and industrial technology companies whose engineering advantage is real but poorly translated. The mandate is to sharpen positioning, build investor-grade materials, and run disciplined capital and partnership processes, with a deliberate focus on underfollowed European markets others overlook.
