Acquisition Entrepreneurs hosts regular meetups for people in the UK search fund and acquisition entrepreneurship ecosystem. Our events connect searchers, investors, advisors, and those still exploring the space.
Come for an evening of networking, and Carl Lundberg and Vitten Varma will be there to speak about their experiences and the mistakes they've seen themselves or others make in search. Carl, CEO of Gerald Edelman and founder of the ETA Awards, is an experienced investor in UK search funds. Vitten, now a Partner at FORTI Search Fund Partners, ran a search fund in the UK for three years. This event is in collaboration with Fuck Up Nights London. £5 tickets — RSVP on Luma for the venue.

A history of our events: recaps, attendance, and the conversations that shaped each meetup.
Around 60 people joined our September drinks focused on the traditional search fund model, bringing together searchers, investors, operators, and people exploring search funds in London. Supported by Newton Equity Partners.
Our biggest event yet, and a huge success: roughly 60 people from across the UK acquisition entrepreneurship community filled the Howard Kennedy offices at London Bridge. Two panels anchored the evening — the first with operators on their first 100 days as CEO after an acquisition, and the second on the different paths into entrepreneurship through acquisition, from self-funded search to roll-ups. Searchers, investors, and operators stayed on for food, drinks, and networking well into the evening.
Over 40 people from across the UK search and acquisition community came together for the summer edition of our informal evening of drinks in central London, with searchers, investors, operators, and people exploring Entrepreneurship through Acquisition all in the room.
The June Acquisition Entrepreneurs drinks brought around 30 people from across the UK search and acquisition community together at the Bow Street Tavern in Covent Garden: searchers, investors, operators, and people exploring Entrepreneurship through Acquisition.
The May Acquisition Entrepreneurs drinks brought around 30 people from across UK search and acquisition together at The Marquess of Anglesey in Covent Garden: searchers, investors, operators, and people exploring Entrepreneurship through Acquisition.
25 people attended the inaugural meetup at The Volunteer. A mix of active UK searchers, prospective searchers, institutional investors, people exploring Entrepreneurship through Acquisition and others all attended.
