Looking to become leaders & long-term CEOs of a great company
Last 10 Years
as best friends + business partners
2014
We're Steve and Radu, and we've been best friends since college. We've studied, partnered across various business ventures, and even traveled together to 13 countries! Most recently, we worked diligently on a startup after raising $300k from venture investors. Steve has worked 5+ years in finance & investing and Radu has worked 7+ years in operations & consulting. Together, we've grown tremendously the last 10 years.
"NexTen" Years
on the journey to entrepreneurship
2024
After helping our families run small businesses of their own, we found our love of entrepreneurship early on - Radu's dad runs a tiling business in OH and Steve's grandfather owned a coin & stamp store in MA. Today, we are excited to become leaders of a great small business & help an owner transition. We respect founders & the history they've worked tirelessly to build. In this new chapter, we're eager to preserve and grow your company & team over the next ten years & beyond!
We Try To Be Different
We lead with our values because relationships matter most
Transparency & Trust
We lead with kindness & honesty. It's true that being upfront is the most thoughtful way to treat others and ourselves
Giving Back Locally
Coming from small towns, we know the value of giving back to our communities and growing together with those around us
Honoring Our Word
Our families taught us that what we say matters. The best test of character comes from keeping promises & commitments
Respect For Traditions
You've built something amazing over the years for a reason. We'll always respect those traditions & strive to create new ones
Long-Term Thinking
We don't make risky choices to maximize short-term gain. Our priority is taking the time to focus on making the right decisions
Intentionality & Focus
We are not a firm building a portfolio - we're passionate entrepreneurs looking to operate & grow a great company together
