BUYER ENGAGEMENT
SUPPORT Adaptive’s involvement does not end with the introduction, and our team remains fully engaged throughout subsequent phases of the acquisition process. As well as continuing to provide a conduit for efficient information exchange (financial documentation, meeting scheduling), Adaptive serves as a valuable mediator throughout the process. Our team ensures that the buyer is kept informed of all developments in the seller’s business, attitudes and circumstances, and ultimately works to enable a successful close.
