Excited to share the latest episode of Venture Wisdom, where I had an insightful conversation with Shawn Flynn, an investment banker and expert dealmaker, about strategic exits and acquisitions—a topic crucial for founders, VCs, and private equity professionals alike.

🔹 What We Covered:
✅ The different types of exits founders should consider
✅ The role of strategic vs. financial buyers in acquisitions
✅ How founders should prepare for an acquisition (hint: start early!)
✅ The biggest mistakes to avoid when selling your company
✅ The emotional and operational realities of the exit process

Shawn shared some incredible insights, including real-world examples of deals gone right (and wrong), plus actionable advice for both founders and investors navigating exits.
