Best resources for search fund newbies? NY/NJ area

Nice to meet everyone! I'm a former management consultant and current part-owner at a 3rd generation family business in NJ.

I'm attending NYU Stern starting this fall. After sharing my background and passions, a classmate recommended I check out Search Funds and this website. Really exciting stuff!

As a newbie and soon to be MBA with experience running a small business, where do you all recommend I get started in terms of learning about SFs? Candidly, my knowledge of financial aspects of deals and/or fundraising needs improvement. Any articles or must read resources would be appreciated!

Thank you!
