Selling a Business in the Age of Digital Disruption
Found a creative exit strategy for a technology company.
Summary
A start-up company with a large capital investment was caught in a technology change and had already burned through most of the capital allocated to the company. A cyclical economic turn removed most of the revenue stream from the company’s portfolio. The company had to quickly cut costs and find a buyer for the technology it had developed.
Orchid Black operators created a plan and executed on the following:
- Developed a strategy to package the IP of the company and find a buyer
- Eliminated all non-essential members of the workforce
- Found and presented to potential buyer
The Outcome
The company assets were sold to a competitor of the firm.
