Elevating opportunities for aspiring acquisition entrepreneurs

Gerald Edelman proudly announces its partnership with the prestigious IESE International Search Fund Centre, reinforcing its commitment to supporting aspiring acquisition entrepreneurs.  

Working since 2011 in conjunction with the Stanford Graduate School of Business, the IESE International Search Fund Centre is renowned for its dedication to empowering the next generation of business leaders and investors. IESE was the first business school outside North America to offer its students a full comprehensive course focused on search funds. Now, the centre forms part of the IESE’s entrepreneurial ecosystem, supporting the development of new ventures, championing innovation and driving growth.  

Through this collaboration, Gerald Edelman aims to provide not only their industry leading expertise in Transactions and Deal Advisory, but also access to their extensive network within the search community, highlighted at their inaugural Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition Awards in November 2023.  

This partnership reflects Gerald Edelman’s dedication to nurturing the growth and success of emerging acquisition entrepreneurs as they navigate the complexities of starting and scaling their businesses.  

“We are delighted to have the opportunity to sponsor the International Search Fund Centre and further our support to the search fund and entrepreneurship through acquisition space on an international footing. We are committed to making a positive contribution to the centre’s activities over the coming years and continuing to extend our network within the community.”
