Letter from the CEO
“Thank you for your interest in our services. I originally founded this firm to help European companies enter the U.S. market through acquisitions. For many years, we were exclusively retained on the buy-side. During that time, we built one of the largest networks of credible investors and business acquirers.
With this strong and highly personal network, we are able to support our clients discreetly without unnecessary market noise. Our relationships allow us to execute mandates without having to publicly market them, which our clients value greatly.
Because we focus on the lower and middle market, we are able to engage buyers and sellers as true peers. At eightM, we also bring our own entrepreneurial experience into the process. We have successfully closed countless transactions, and our team’s operator perspective is your advantage.”
