Choosing the Right Investors

In Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition (ETA), your investors are your partners for the long haul. Selecting the right capital providers can mean the difference between a smooth acquisition and a rocky operational journey.

Join the Entrepreneurship Club on April 13th as we welcome a speaker from 9T Capital, a leading investment firm focused on Search Funds, to discuss Choosing the Right Investors.

You will learn how successful searchers evaluate their capital partners, structure their cap tables, and ensure long-term alignment throughout the search, acquisition, and operating phases.
