Transactions

Our unique expertise is in aligning and advising boards, founders, and shareholder-managers and acquirers, throughout the complexity of people and IP based private mid cap transactions.

We provide end-to-end transaction advisory: from acquisition to exit strategy, from transaction preparation to deal execution.

We leverage our sector experience in our proprietary methodology, The 4Ps - Purpose, People, Process, Performance, to deliver exit readiness workshop ‘Prep4Sale’, advisory program ‘The Apollo Journey’ and imagine specific deal architectures, with financial sponsors or strategic buyers.
