About Us
Our Approach
We pride ourselves on our high-touch approach and have the skill set and experience to execute highly complex transactions and maximize value for our clients.
RiverPark Partners is a boutique investment bank with licensed representatives for business owners, dedicated to helping you sell your business for what it’s truly worth.
​
Our north star is to provide exceptional advisory services focused on privately owned and operated businesses with $5-$150 million of revenue in the lower middle market, an often-overlooked segment of the private capital market that is deemed to be too small for elite boutique investment banks, yet too complex for most business brokers. Our systematic approach to providing high-quality advisory and consulting ensures that the hard work founders have put into building their businesses will be recognized and valued by potential buyers and investors.
​
Our FINRA-licensed investment banking professionals are aware that our engagements often represent one of the most significant events in our clients’ professional and personal journeys. We take this responsibility very seriously and treat every engagement with attention, care, thoughtfulness, and professionalism. While we often quarterback the overall deal process, through our partnerships, we also assist clients in assembling a multidisciplinary team of professionals to cover client needs on all fronts. Upon client request, RiverPark Partners can introduce and work closely with financial, tax, accounting, and estate planning professionals to achieve ideal outcomes based on specific client objectives.
Victory Loves Preparation
Our firm mantra is that success is built on meticulous preparation. Our experience as professional athletes taught us that preparation is the foundation for peak performance. We believe this philosophy is just as true in the world of business, and being well-prepared during each stage of a transaction allows us to execute with precision and achieve the best possible outcomes for our clients.
Collaborative & Informative
We collaborate with both clients and investors to create beneficial partnerships. As part of our hands-on approach, we work closely with our clients to develop innovative solutions and find investors that can bring adequate capital, knowledge and network to the existing business.
Win-Win
Our ambition is to help you achieve your goals as smoothly as possible. Having a common goal is what makes a team perform at its highest level. We consider a transaction successful when the client and the investor are both equally satisfied with the outcome.
References Matter
At first glance, advisory firms like RiverPark Partners may all look and sound the same, but we believe our approach, attention to detail, and focus on personal and business goals set us apart. To gain real insights on what a relationship with RiverPark Partners looks like, we encourage you to reach out to the executives and entrepreneurs at the companies we represented in the past.
Culture is Key
Investors tend to focus on numbers, but over the years, we have learned that a company's culture and values, while not measurable on a spreadsheet, play integral roles in creating unique and sought-after assets. We look for companies that put customers and employees first.
Our Values
What we do is driven by core principles that shape our character and culture. These enduring values are rooted in our world-class athletic backgrounds, and we believe the discipline and integrity cultivated during our professional sports careers translate seamlessly to the business world. We hold ourselves to the highest standards and conduct our business based on a set of shared, non-negotiable values that have helped us develop strong reputations among clients and investors.
A boutique investment bank dedicated to helping you successfully complete the most important transaction of your lifetime.

​
We feel that this segment of the market is underrepresented when it comes to high-quality advisory and investment banking services (i.e., the type of advisory support larger companies enjoy when they retain larger firms with regard to their capital needs) We believe that regardless of the size and scale of your company, you and your business deserve the best possible representation.
