We offer a full suite of M&A services customized to your unique business needs, all in one place. Think of us like your entrepreneurial Swiss army knife.

Not Your Grandpa’s M&A Firm

As an entrepreneur, you’re one of the great icons of America. Yet when you have a growth challenge or want to buy or sell a business, it’s easy to feel intimidated and overwhelmed. Not to mention you have to deal with a dusty, out-of-touch M&A industry. Or worse—those predatory, “smarter-than-you” types who treat you like a transaction, not a partner.

That’s why we put a different spin on how things are done in the mergers and acquisitions world. Our expertise comes from actually being in the trenches of entrepreneurship ourselves, so we work alongside you as a trusted collaborator who truly cares about your business. At the same time, we leverage modern technology and AI, as well as a vast investment banking network, to maximize deal flow, efficiency, and value throughout the process. Simply put, we’re a better fit for today’s business climate than those other guys.

Don’t entrust your hard-earned “baby” to archaic M&A firms from your grandpa’s era. At Icon Business Advisors, we’re about the relationship AND the results. Get the confidence, peace of mind, and optimal outcomes you deserve and partner with us today.

2,000+ active transactions among our connections.

THAT MEANS

From M&A deals to various investment opportunities, we give you exposure locally, nationally, and internationally.

25+ years of entrepreneurial experience on our team.

THAT MEANS

With business acumen in multiple industries, we know what you’re going through (and how to use our expertise to help you thrive).
