Corporate Growth & Economic Development
Geo Strategy Partners helps our clients achieve strategic growth through strategic acquisitions, alliances, access to capital, and international development. Our global team of market specialists is adept at facilitating market growth across industries and geographies and facilitating the necessary strategic relationships. In a competitive global economy, we offer our clients a way to accelerate strategic growth and achieve a global competitive position.
Corporate Growth
For our B2B clients, our growth services often take the shape of facilitating mergers, acquisitions, sales, or divestitures. Although we operate as an intermediary, we add exceptional value by bringing our market insights and strategic positioning acumen to each assignment, helping our clients achieve true strategic growth. Often an acquisition or sale is first identified as an opportunity through market research or strategy development. We also work with companies seeking to sell a company or business unit. In all cases, we operate as a trusted strategic advisor, not a broker or investment banker. We leverage our proven and disciplined process to help clients achieve strategic market-driven goals and recognize that a transaction is a tactical milestone, not a strategic goal.
Economic Development
For our economic development clients, our growth services include investor recruiting, b2b matchmaking, outbound road shows, inbound investor missions, expansion and retention programs, industry growth cluster development, and overall program management to grow your economic base. We offer turn-key solutions from economic development strategy to program management to investment recruiting. We have certified economic developers on staff.

Our mergers and acquisitions practice is
an extension of our market research and

For our B2B clients, we are able to develop winning business plans and prospectuses, and position them with appropriate venture capital firms.
Economic Development
Inbound Investment
A big part of economic development is about
attracting new industry and capital. Geo
Strategy Partners is experienced in industrial
recruitment, having implemented investment
attraction programs around the world.
Too often economic development programs focus on attracting new businesses while ignoring established businesses. Growing local businesses create jobs and can often have more impact on economic growth with less input.
A sound economic development strategy
should involve key industry growth structures.
Economic development is about strengthening
the regional economy and to do so require
building in all elements of the supply chain
and infra-structure.
Currently Geo Strategy Partners manages economic development for international agencies that look to us to market their region and recruit investment.
Corporate Growth
Intermediary Services
Geo Strategy Partners approaches mergers
and acquisitions as tactical execution of
strategic intent. For this reason we are
ideally suited to play the role of intermediary.
Because we are strategy consultants and business planners first, we prepare offering memorandums that are sound business plans grounded in strategy and supported by market data.
There are many aspects of due diligence but none more important than verifying a companies’ position in the market.
Strategic Alliance Facilitation
Strategic Alliances can be a great way to capture market opportunities with limited risk. But they can be difficult to put together correctly and fragile to maintain.

M & A Series - How To Value A Company
Key to success in investment recruitment is understanding the decision-drivers of the investors and the unique assets of the investment destination in terms of workforce availability and talent, business costs, raw materials/suppliers, logistics, the regulatory environment and inducements for investment.
In the same way that keeping an existing customer costs less than developing a new one, retaining and growing existing industry is less expensive and less difficult than recruiting new industries to your community.
The use of industry clusters for recruitment and retention is a field that has gained a lot of attention.
Successful Mergers and Acquisitions
At Geo Strategy Partners we do not do a large volume of mergers and acquisitions. Primarily, this is because our practice focuses on strategy and strategic growth. Mergers and Acquisitions are only one tactic to achieve strategic growth or strategic positioning.
