Founders & Owners
You built it. Selling or scaling it is a different skill.
The decisions you face as an owner are not corporate decisions with your name on them. A first capital raise, an inbound acquisition approach, a succession, a sale: each is strategic, financial, and personal at once, and you make them without a strategy committee, an in-house M&A team, or a board process built over decades. There is you, the information you can gather, and the advisors you choose to trust. The quality of that choice compounds every time.
What you engage us for
A term sheet is not a negotiation about price. It is a negotiation about control, dilution, and what happens when the relationship breaks. You negotiate it once; the counterparty has done it hundreds of times. You engage Avior to build the independent view of value before you respond: what the business is worth, which terms are non-standard, and what they mean in practice. The same holds for owner-operators at smaller scale: the number still has to be the right number, and the structure still has to hold after signing.
How we work
The principal does the work, no junior advisors on owner mandates, and the view of value we build is ours, not borrowed from the counterparty's bankers. We work the decision behind the deal, in healthcare and life sciences where we know the ground.
The business you built deserves advice as serious as the decision in front of you.
