Trivest provides founders with a transparent, fair acquisition process designed to eliminate the traditional transaction pain points, uncertainty and difficult negotiations that permeate many M&A processes. We believe that the acquisition process is often the beginning of a long-term relationship, and we strive to begin that relationship with a positive experience. In fact, 10 founders from whom Trivest previously acquired businesses had such a positive experience that they chose to become investors in Trivest Fund V.
How do we make the transaction process fair and transparent? We identified the most common areas where acquisition processes fail and largely eliminated them for founders. Our process encourages you to Just Say NO! to these pain points put in place by other firms. Instead, we choose to conduct business in a different, more straight-forward manner:
