Three core contributions
The Directory
A cross-linked map of search funds, investors, and acquisition CEOs active in the UK — updated continuously.
Community Events
Monthly meetups in London plus the full global ETA conference calendar in one place.
Curated Resources
The papers, books, and podcasts that can serve as great materials for those wanting to learn more about Entrepreneurship through Acquisition.
How we compile the directory
Every entry in the directory is built from public sources: investor websites, conference programmes, LinkedIn, Companies House, and direct outreach.
Where something is uncertain, we either mark it explicitly or hold it in a review queue until we can corroborate it. This is an ongoing effort to collate this comprehensive directory, if something is inaccurate or missing, get in touch.
