As part of the ESP Global ecosystem, we offer a unique capability that combines world-class human capital expertise with sophisticated M&A advisory. Through our sister company, Harbour Beacon Advisory, we support clients — both strategic acquirers and financial sponsors — in identifying and executing growth through acquisition.
We deliver high-quality, tailored acquisition opportunities - not just lists of companies. We take the time to understand our client’s investment theses and criteria, combining AI-driven research with human expertise to identify and engage only the most relevant acquisition targets. Every opportunity we present is vetted and qualified, ensuring that our clients spend time on serious, high-potential deals.
We leverage cutting-edge AI tools to streamline proprietary deal origination so our clients can focus on closing the right deals, not chasing the wrong ones. By harnessing AI for data mining, industry research, and outreach automation, we accelerate the deal-sourcing process without sacrificing quality. Our tech-driven approach allows us to find opportunities faster and more cost-effectively than traditional methods, giving our clients a competitive edge.
We operate as an extension of your team, providing clear, honest insights and candid feedback. We work on a simple fee basis that aligns incentives and produces high ROI, ensuring that our focus is purely on finding the best opportunities for our clients.
Lower-middle market PE firms often lack the internal sourcing capacity of larger funds, making it challenging to maintain a steady deal flow. Our AI-powered, human-in-the-loop approach helps PE firms identify, qualify, and engage proprietary off-market acquisition targets, ensuring a continuous pipeline of high-fit opportunities that align with their investment thesis.
Many family offices seek direct investments but lack dedicated in-house deal origination teams. We provide a cost-effective, technology-driven sourcing solution that uncovers high-quality, off-market deals, helping family offices execute strategic acquisitions without relying on intermediaries or paying excessive broker fees.
Independent sponsors, search fund founders, and self-funded searchers often operate without an established deal-sourcing infrastructure. Our service gives acquisition entrepreneurs the firepower of an institutional sourcing team, leveraging AI and expert screening to deliver qualified sellers who are ready for discussions so that searchers can focus on closing the right deal, not finding one.
Corporate development teams need to identify strategic acquisitions that support growth, expand market reach, or enhance capabilities. We provide a scalable, data-driven sourcing solution that uncovers potential bolt-on acquisitions, tuck-ins, roll-up targets, and new market entry opportunities, allowing corporations to execute their M&A strategy with confidence.
