NEW YORK, Sept. 23, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- On September 10th, Acresis LLC ("Acresis") hosted its 3rd Founder Summit at the CORE Club in New York City. Over 50 founders and CEOs attended this invitation-only leadership and networking event targeted for 'scale up' ready, founder-owned businesses and designed to foster relationships between founders, investors, lenders and partners in wealth management and law.
Marcus Wagner, founder of the Intacct-based Cloud and BPaaS provider, AcctTwo said, "spending an evening talking to fellow founders and CEOs faced with the same high growth challenges as I have, and talking with potential investors, is an incredibly productive way to spend an evening and reflects the value Acresis brings to me and my company."
"Statistically, we know that 80% of founder-owned, post revenue, scale up stage businesses will be bought, or will raise growth equity, or will fail within the next 3 years of their life", said Mark Hodges, Chairman and co-Founder of Acresis. "We are here specifically to help our Founder clients succeed in the market and participate in a well-earned liquidity event."
Anthony Newton, founder of Kaduceus, said "Acresis brings insight and foresight to their business owner clients.
