Connection Request

Hi Lyn — 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 Albion.

Subject B: 322 uk companies
Email 1A — The Give

Hi Lyn — similar-ish background. I'm from Zim and did M&A then growth equity in London, not too different from backing early-stage companies. Now I build proprietary origination systems for funds like yours across fragmented UK businesses. Over the past 6 months, one of my systems surfaced 300+ off-market conversations with owners across 10 sectors. I've put them together: 322 UK companies open to sale. One that looked relevant: A £2-5m SaaS provider delivering regulatory compliance and technical information systems to financial institutions via a recurring subscription model. It might be a fit for ALBION DEVELOPMENT VCT based on the software angle. Here's the link: https://sample.searchloop.ai/ Want a quick call? I can walk through how I got this and share some of the actual names. — 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.

Email 2 — Follow-up

Hi Lyn — quick second note in case this got buried. The list is here: https://sample.searchloop.ai/ It is anonymised, but it should show the shape of the work: sector, scale, owner motivation, and enough to judge whether the source is useful for ALBION DEVELOPMENT VCT. Want a quick call? I can walk through how I got this and share the names behind the examples. — 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.

Email 3 — Follow-up

Hi Lyn — last nudge. The useful bit is not really the list. It is the system behind it: direct owner conversations, matched to buyer theses, across fragmented UK sectors. One more example that mapped to ALBION DEVELOPMENT VCT: A £10-25m provider of white-label SaaS and logistics outsourcing for the European specialist healthcare retail and prescription market. Worth a quick call? — 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.

Email 4 — Breakup

Lyn — I'll leave it there. Link's here if useful later: https://sample.searchloop.ai/ — 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.
