Why this conversation matters now
The Trillion-Dollar Opportunity No One Is Talking About
"What happens to this company when I'm done?"
Thousands of established business owners are reaching that point. Sometimes their children don't want it. Sometimes the business was never prepared for a traditional sale. Sometimes the owner loves the employees and wants to protect what they've built — but simply doesn't have another 10 years of operating energy left.
That creates an extraordinary opportunity for the next generation of entrepreneurs — not just to start more businesses, but to own businesses that already exist.
