Interests: - Unique value proposition: One of the most important factors I look at is the company's unique value proposition. The difference in the technology offered by them and the competitors, real-life problem solutions, and the company's sustainable competitive advantage. - Market size and growth potential: I spend time evaluating the size of the market the company operates in, as well as its potential for growth. I also consider factors such as the size of the addressable market, the pace of industry growth, and the company's ability to capture market share. - Financial performance: I examine the company's financial performance, including revenue growth, profitability, and cash flow. This helps me to determine whether the company is a good acquisition opportunity and whether it has a sustainable business model. - Technology innovation: Technology businesses should focus on innovation to keep up with the rapidly changing market. I check the company's research and development, patent portfolios, and any cutting-edge technologies they may have. - Management team: The company's management team is critical to its success. I request information to evaluate the experience, expertise, and track record of the executive team to ensure that they have the skills and experience necessary to lead the company. - Intellectual property: Technology businesses should have some type of intellectual property, including patents, trademarks, and copyrights. Having these assets provide a competitive advantage. - Customer base: I research the quality and size of the company's customer base to determine whether the company has a loyal customer base and a good customer retention rate. - Compliance and regulatory environment: I like to check a company's responsibility to comply with all legal and regulatory requirements. I like to know the level of effort and due diligence needed to maintain legal and regulatory obligations in the jurisdiction in which it operates and that it has a plan in place to stay compliant.

Interests: I am an individual investor, when evaluating a business for investment, acquisition, or advisory, several critical factors come into play. A business's market position and differentiation are paramount. I look for companies that have a clear competitive edge or are willing to reach that position, a unique selling proposition, within their niche. Businesses operating in iconic venues or niche markets with unique cultural attractions are particularly appealing. Conversely, I tend to avoid businesses in overly saturated markets that lack clear differentiation or exhibit limited growth potential. Financial performance and stability are equally crucial. I prioritize businesses with consistent revenue streams and promising profit margins, and efficient cost management. Said that even though the above is not reached yet, it needs to show a willingness to improve and reach such efficiency. Scalability and a history of prudent financial practices are very important as well. Companies burdened by significant debt, erratic cash flow, or evidence of financial mismanagement, however, are less attractive, as they often point to structural issues that are difficult to rectify. Growth potential is another important aspect. I am drawn to businesses that demonstrate opportunities to expand their market share, diversify revenue streams, or introduce innovative products and services. On the other hand, stagnant businesses that fail to adapt to market trends or innovate in their operations are generally avoided. Operational efficiency is a critical measure of a business’s overall health. Companies with well-structured operations that allow room for optimization, particularly through technology adoption, cost efficiency, and effective management, stand out as promising candidates. In contrast, businesses plagued by inefficiencies, disorganized systems, or dependency on a single individual or vendor raise significant concerns. Industry trends and demand play a significant role in decision-making. Businesses aligned with growing sectors such as sustainable solutions, technology-driven services, or experience-focused models are particularly attractive. Conversely, businesses in declining industries or those heavily disrupted by external forces, such as traditional retail without digital adaptability, present significant risks and are less desirable. Leadership and team dynamics are also key factors. Strong leadership with a clear vision, coupled with motivated teams and a culture fostering innovation and collaboration, is a positive indicator of success. I tend to avoid businesses with toxic work environments, poor leadership, or a lack of succession planning, as these issues can undermine long-term sustainability. The customer base and retention strategy are critical components of a business’s long-term health. I am drawn to businesses with a loyal, diverse customer base and positive customer engagement metrics. Community-driven models or companies with strong repeat business are particularly appealing. However, businesses that rely too heavily on a narrow customer demographic or employ short-term promotional tactics without fostering long-term loyalty can be risky. Finally, a thorough assessment of risks and liabilities is essential. I look for businesses that maintain transparency in risk assessments and have robust mitigation strategies in place. I avoid businesses with undisclosed legal or operational risks, excessive dependency on external factors like a single supplier, or those lacking contingency planning. In terms of preferences, I am particularly drawn to businesses like nightclubs or entertainment venues with a clear brand identity and opportunities for experiential offerings. High-tech real estate solutions, such as co-living or co-working spaces or container accommodations powered by AI, and sustainable hospitality ventures focusing on eco-friendly practices also align with my interests. Premium retail or lifestyle brands that cater to affluent clientele with tailored, high-end experiences are equally appealing. Conversely, I avoid traditional retail businesses that fail to innovate, commodity-based businesses with low margins and high dependency on market fluctuations, over-leveraged startups with aggressive expansion plans lacking market validation, and businesses in declining industries. By focusing on these criteria, I ensure that my involvement is with ventures that have a clear path to success, sustainability, and positive returns. I am looking for potential businesses, location is not a constraint.
