One fundamental reason Lightning Partners consistently drives outstanding transaction outcomes is our trademark combination of “People, Positioning and Process.”  The “process” function is the result of hundreds of iterations we have performed and perfected over two decades. The “people” and “positioning” functions come from our tech subsector focus.  We maintain regular dialogue with acquirers and investors in our focus sectors, so we understand their evolving interests and strategies, the subtleties of their markets and companies, and their ever-shifting views about growth opportunities. 

We maintain an active, current understanding of activity in our focus markets (not just “what” but “why”). This is critical to evaluate, perfect and communicate the value proposition of our clients to potential and investors to achieve optimal outcomes. Our domain expertise and sector focus go beyond the top names in our sectors to include less obvious players who are positioning to disrupt or redefine the market through unexpected market plays.
