Ra'ed Husseini

Hi Ra'ed — Zimbabwean by background, did M&A banking then growth equity at a European fund. Now running UK SME origination. Built a list of 322 UK companies open to sale — two looked relevant for Corniche so happy to share.

Ra'ed — Given you're backing creative investments, I figured we probably share some overlap. Though, I'm from Zimbabwe, and did direct SME investments for a European fund. Now I build origination systems for funds like yours and over the past 6 months, we've had 500+ conversations with UK business owners. Of all those targets, 322 are open to a sale. And the two that felt closest to what you're looking for are: • A £25-50m revenue creative technology studio providing immersive digital experiences and AI solutions for an international blue-chip client base. • A £2-5m revenue creative and content production specialist delivering bespoke artistic solutions for professional and individual clients in the UK. Here's a link to the full anonymised list: sample.searchloop.ai Let me know if you'd like to chat about the specific names or how they were surfaced. very best, Russ linkedin.com/in/russellt23

Hi Ra'ed — quick second note in case the first got buried. a bit more detail: I've built proprietary deal-origination infrastructure for 20+ search funds and PE groups. The 322-company list is one output of the pipeline. Another is a research piece I wrote that maps several UK services sub-sectors by opportunity and level of market interest. This is based on proprietary signal that we've received via our engagements. Here's the link: sample.searchloop.ai/research/uk-services (drone inspection, data center electrical maintenance, site prep & tic emerge are some of the featured sectors) Let me know if you'd like to chat through it or the proprietary list. very best, Russ linkedin.com/in/russellt23

Hi Ra'ed — Another fit from our 322 company list for Corniche: A £50m+ revenue agricultural supply chain specialist providing fresh produce, contract farming, and logistics to national retailers and industrial processors. sound interesting?

Ra'ed — going to assume the timing's off, I'll leave it there. The list and research are there when you want them. Very best, Russell.
