01

Exit readiness & value acceleration

We help technology companies enter the market prepared—we assess financial reporting, technology infrastructure, operational processes, and growth metrics to identify gaps that create deal friction. We understand what improves valuation, and what creates problems during buyer diligence.

Our focus is practical improvements in the 12-18 months before a sale—better financial controls, cleaner data, documented processes, and clear growth stories. The goal is straightforward: enter negotiations with a business buyer's trust, command better valuations, and close deals faster with fewer surprises.

M&A advisory

Our hands-on approach brings transaction experience, industry knowledge, and a network of buyers, sellers, and advisors to every engagement. The outcome: successful exits at premium valuations for sellers, and strategic acquisitions that drive growth and deliver projected synergies for buyers.

We ensure you don't leave value on the table as a seller, or overpaying and underperforming as a buyer. On the sell-side, we position your business, identify and approach potential acquirers, manage competitive processes, and negotiate terms that maximize value. On the buy-side, we source targets aligned with your strategy, conduct commercial and technical diligence, and structure deals that create genuine strategic advantage.

Technology & growth advisory

Growing technology companies struggle to prioritize technology investments—often pursuing the latest trends without clear business outcomes, or maintaining legacy systems that constrain scalability and competitive positioning. We provide strategic advise to technology companies on digital transformation, AI adoption, and platform decisions that support scalable growth.

Whether modernizing legacy systems, implementing automation, or building new capabilities, we help navigate on what to prioritize, how to execute, and which solutions align with your business model and growth trajectory. The outcome: practical technology investments that deliver measurable results—improved efficiency, enhanced customer experiences, faster time-to-market, and stronger competitive positioning as you scale.

Capital introduction & partnerships

We work with a network of investors, venture capital firms, and strategic partners focused on technology companies. When appropriate, we facilitate introductions between companies seeking capital and investors seeking opportunities in AI, automation, and tech-enabled services.

In select cases where there's strong strategic alignment, we may participate as co-investors alongside our partners. This keeps us aligned with the companies we advise while giving us direct insight into the challenges and opportunities facing growing technology businesses.
