Why a focused firm
Senior-led from scoping to readout.
- No leverage pyramid: senior leadership runs the interviews and builds the models, not a junior team.
- Deep in industrial niches where published data is thin: automotive, commercial vehicles, plastics, metals, packaging, industrial equipment, and battery supply chain.
- CPA-trained leadership, so the market story and the financial model agree.
- Experienced with Japanese-headquartered buyers and cross-border deals.
