You also get monthly credits for contact information for your company sourcing campaign with the option to purchase more at drastically discounted rates. Searchfunder has pre-purchased access from these data providers in order to empower individual buyers and to help searchers level the playing field versus private equity.

Absolutely! We have the industry's largest intern job board. If you are considering a search, the first step is to help another business buyer so you can hit the ground running.

Do I need an MBA to join?

While a large number of our members come from dedicated programs at Harvard Business School, Stanford GSB, Chicago Booth, and other top programs, searching is no longer reserved for the elite. With the current abundance of dry powder in private equity, and an increasing number of business owners reaching retirement age, good deals rarely go unfunded.

Launching Oryx Legacy, a UAE-focused Search Fund

I am thrilled to announce the official launch of Oryx Legacy, a traditional search fund backed by fifteen world-class investors and entrepreneurs focused on acquiring and operating one great small to medium-sized business in the United Arab Emirates.

Over the next two years, Oryx Legacy will take a sector-agnostic approach to find one great business to grow for the long-term. On day one, initial target sectors will include education, healthcare, pet services, IT services, and tourism-adjacent industries.

I’d like to take a moment to thank the many regional and global investors, advisors, business leaders, and the searcher community that have helped, through many different means, get Oryx Legacy to this point. I’m incredibly excited about the opportunity that lies ahead in the UAE and with Oryx Legacy. Onwards and upwards!
