Why It Will PAY to Hear Me Out
My name is Mike Elia, , I am a chief financial officer and an advisor to venture capitalists and leverage buyout specialists and the author of several articles and a business plan manual. It's taken me years to learn my deal making craft, and that same skill has been the reason why I have successfully written and presented business plans for over 17 merger and acquisition transactions worth $967 million and arranged for $760 million in financing from 1997 to 2003 alone. And, I continue to build on this record today.
I have spent the past decade working with some of the worlds top venture capital firms, investment banks and lending institutions. Firms like Credit Suisse First Boston and CitiBank Venture Capital. Investment bankers like Lehman Brothers and JPMorganChase. And, major banks like LaSalle, KeyBank and National City. I also regularly present at investor conferences.
