Subject B: Two names for Tundas
Hi Richard, Given you back emerging market companies, you're likely frustrated with good dealflow. So, I thought I'd extend a small favor and share two names from my proprietary outreach that might be a fit. One is: Investuk (Group), a £5-10m professional services firm facilitating cross-border investment and market entry for international capital and private clients. And another is: A £5-10m manufacturer of solar-powered water management systems engineered specifically for small-scale producers in emerging international markets. The two names are part of a full 322 long list of targets that are open to sale. Targets derived from conversations with over 500 owners over the past 9 months. Here's a link to the full anonymised list: sample.searchloop.ai At searchloop, I build custom software to generate proprietary conversations with business owners. We've had success with 20+ funds, some with >£500m in AUM some with £10m. Happy to walk you through how it works. Send me a reply and we can schedule a quick 20 min call. very best, Russ linkedin.com/in/russellt23 PS: if this isn't relevant, reply no and I'll leave you in peace. might even go for a walk.
Hi Richard — quick second note in case the first got buried. a bit more detail: I've built proprietary origination tools for 20+ funds, each covering a differentiated, human-in-the-loop approach. 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 investor 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) Just reply to this email if you'd like to chat through it or the proprietary list. very best, Russ linkedin.com/in/russellt23 PS: if this isn't relevant, reply no and I'll leave you in peace. might even go for a walk.
Richard, Another fit from our 322 company list for Tundas: Oilfield Production Consultants (Opc), a £5-10m global technical consultancy providing commercial advisory and project management services to the industrial decarbonisation sector. sound interesting? PS: if this isn't relevant, reply no and I'll leave you in peace. might even go for a walk.
Hi Richard 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. PS: if this isn't relevant, reply no and I'll leave you in peace. might even go for a walk.
