Our Story
Experience Built
We built Meliora Advisory to give lower middle market businesses the same caliber of M&A advice the leading firms provide. As former operators with buy- and sell-side experience, we know how painful deals can be – and how to close them right. Over $4B in transactions later, we’re just getting started.
Our Vision
Next-Level Dealmaking
We are here to modernize dealmaking – bringing speed, transparency, and real support to founders who deserve better. As a next-gen firm built on trust and empathy, our vision is simple: become the go-to advisor for East Coast entrepreneurs ready to exit right.
