Brent Beshore is the CEO of Adventur.es, a private equity firm. Adventur.es has a totally different approach to private equity that makes them stand out in the industry. Brent and his team have even written a book to help business owners navigate the tricky and messy world of Mergers and Acquisitions. We discuss the book and why Brent thought it was important to write it. He explains why he prefers employees who don’t have previous experience in the private equity space, and how it makes Adventur.es different from the traditional private equity firm.
M&A is a messy world and Brent’s book is a great resource to help business owners get a grip on the complicated ins and outs of private equity. Do your due diligence and take the time to really research your prospects before you jump into anything. If you are interested in the accelerator program, then you can reach out to me at [email protected] or LinkedIn. We also have a page on the website with more information.
