With dogged determination, we serve business sellers, buyers and investors in the sale and purchase of businesses, fighting for our clients to succeed, advancing their interests, and maximizing the value of their best opportunities. We do it confidentially, maintaining integrity, high ethics and little fanfare, while delivering superior results. And we do it with the combined knowledge and experience of industry leaders who have united to bring the very best service available to clients nationwide in one firm.

International Business Group, LLC (dba IBG Business) exists to bring the best in merger and acquisition (M&A) skills and knowledge to business owners when they are ready to sell their company, and to buyers and investors in making a successful acquisition.

IBG’s distinctive character and shared values are defined by our shared commitment to deliver to business owners excellence in M&A services, at every stage of the purchase and sale process, with a consistent emphasis on confidentiality, communication, service, results, and post-closing support.

Business owners are well-advised to look to an intermediaries’ track record as a guide to what to expect in their business sales or acquisitions.

IBG’s record of achievement and success for clients is crystal clear, as our corporate resume demonstrates:

  • Exceptional blending of experience
  • Business ownership
  • Education and specialized training
  • Professional credentials
  • Hundreds of completed transactions

Each of IBG’s principals offers you 35 years or more of full-time expertise in completing successful M&A transactions and business sales, with lifetimes of impeccable integrity and high achievement as respected business owners and leaders. Their shared ethic, mindset, and capability work together to accomplish M&A transaction successes for our clients.

Our hands-on M&A experience with privately held middle market businesses is broad and deep. IBG Business was founded by combining the expertise, resources, and best practices by industry leaders in the mergers and acquisitions (M&A) profession and owners of top M&A advisor firms from across the country. We bring owners the strengths of the earned credibility and respect that our founders brought into IBG at inception and have worked diligently to maintain in each relationship.
