At our firm we see entrepreneurs, investors, and business people from around the world and we assist them in obtaining their version of the American dream. Quite often, however, we do not feel qualified to advise international investors on which business opportunity to pursue. As a result we have sought out and allied ourselves with the Florida Gulf Coast’s most qualified M & A professionals. Edward Valaitis, Certified Business Intermediary, is one of them.
Mr. Valaitis has an impressive set of experiences and expertise. Where most business intermediaries will either have experience as entrepreneurs, professional services or in the corporate world, Mr. Valaitis has all three:
