networking strategy (i.e. making business contacts)
I'm having trouble understanding the last part of the sentence below. I think the "autant" are throwing me off:
Dans l'éventualité où un réseau stratégique deviendrait critique face aux opérations d'une jeune entreprise, nous vous recommandons de vous faire assister par un spécialiste autant pour la pertinence, pour la réflexion stratégique que pour l'accompagnement lié au processus.
This is the part I'd like help with:
... autant pour la pertinence, pour la réflexion stratégique que pour l'accompagnement lié au processus.
This is what I have so far:
Should a strategic network become critical to the operations of a start-up company, we recommend you seek assistance from an expert...

regarding.....as well as for.....
It's "autant...que" except the "que" is miles away, and you've got a list of 2 things before the "que" but with no "et", as the French do.
Roughly then:
...from an expert regarding (or for) (both) relevence and strategic guidance(?), as well as for assistance relating to the process (itself).

not only...but also
I'd use this construction, but switch the information round, as the "accompagnement" is the expected information and the other two are additional info.
Something went wrong...
