What We Do

We advise billion-dollar distributors on strategic transactions with tech startups. Some call us the Digital Sherpa because we are trusted by distributor executives to clear the fog within the technology landscape. And, when appropriate, we co-invest via the distribution industry’s first venture capital fund.
