Flexible equity model

The AEC Business enables our partners to find liquidity in a traditionally illiquid industry. Many partners wish to continue leading their firm and would like to take some money off the table for themself and their families.

Our flexible equity models allow owners to leverage equity and continue to lead as your business's brand, culture, and employees remain undisrupted.

 

A strategic partnership

We play a vital role in strengthening the company's business development, revenue operations, production, delivery, and talent acquisition processes to build a more profitable, sustainable, durable, and predictable business. 

The AEC Business platform is a strategic resource our partners leverage to increase enterprise value and run a competitive industry business.

 

Lasting Enterprise Value

The goal is to enhance impact, value, and liquidity for all shareholders. Each step taken towards increasing the business's value is a step that benefits all shareholders—leading to a reciprocal flywheel of strategic liquidity, operational excellence, and lasting enterprise value.
