Marco Capello

Hi Marco — 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 Bluegem so happy to share.

Hi Marco — similar-ish background. I'm from Zim and was a banker doing M&A at Greenhill, then moved into growth equity in London. 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 for Bluegem: A £5-10m specialist food ingredient manufacturer supplying bespoke lipid-based products to the large-scale industrial food processing and retail sectors. 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.

Hi Marco — 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 Bluegem.

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.

Hi Marco — 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 Bluegem: A £5-10m independent pharmaceutical business developing and manufacturing prescription medicines for specialist therapeutic areas in the domestic 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.

Marco — 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.
