On this week’s episode of M&A Masters, we sit down with Samantha Ory to talk about choosing partnership over buyout. Samantha’s company, Ouroboros Group, is a private investment firm specializing in middle market corporate acquisitions and operations in the manufacturing, healthcare, and consumer sectors.

Samantha says, “I found that there is this segment of outlier companies and CEOs who are looking for something a little bit different. We cater a lot to the CEOs. We always ask ‘what can we do for you?’ It builds trust, but it’s also very genuine… we really want to know.”

Listen as she walks us through:

• How her non-traditional background led to a unique approach for the Ouroboros Group
• Two atypical things they focus on to take a company to the next level (post buyout)
• The 3 algorithmic strategies they use to find deals
• The key to developing organic partnerships
• And much more
