Hi Andy — I'm from Zimbabwe, did M&A banking then growth equity at a European fund. Now running proprietary outreach to UK business owners. Put together a register of 322 UK companies open to sale — thought it might be relevant for APC.

Hi Andy — I'm from Zimbabwe, ended up doing growth equity for a European fund. Different path to buying into uk lower mid-market businesses, but close enough that we're probably looking at similar businesses. I run proprietary deal origination for funds like yours across UK owner-managed businesses. Off the back of 300+ direct conversations with owners across 10 sectors, I've put together a password-protected register of 322 companies open to sale. Only sharing it with a handful of funds, and figured you may want a look. Want me to send it across? — Russ searchloop.ai linkedin.com/in/russellt23

Hi Andy — similar-ish background. I did M&A banking then growth equity at a European fund before ending up in SME origination, not too different from buying into uk lower mid-market businesses. I run proprietary deal origination for funds like yours across UK owner-managed businesses. Off the back of 300+ direct conversations with owners across 10 sectors, I've put together a password-protected register of 322 companies open to sale. You pick the sectors that matter, ignore the rest. Only sharing it with a small number of funds. Do you want to take a look? — Russ searchloop.ai linkedin.com/in/russellt23

Hi Andy — did you get a chance to look at this? Still happy to share the register, no strings attached. — Russ

Andy — still open to sending the register across if the timing's better now. — Russ

Andy — going to assume the timing's off. I'll leave it there. If the register ever becomes useful, you know where I am. — Russ
