 Peter Jordan is a seasoned entrepreneur with a strong background in computer science and business, having founded and led Knowledge Matters for 25 years. His perspective on the Woodbridge investment bank engagement is shaped by his experience during the acquisition process of his company. He valued the broad market approach taken by Woodbridge in selling his business, appreciating their ability to attract a diverse range of potential buyers, including industry companies, PE-backed firms, and wealthy individuals. Jordan trusted Woodbridge to narrow down the list of potential buyers to those who were serious and had the capital to make the deal happen, relieving him of the burden of managing the process himself. Overall, Jordan found Woodbridge's approach invaluable in finding the right buyer for his business while he focused on running the company and achieving growth.
