Discovery & mandate
We understand the business, the owner's goals and what a successful outcome looks like before any market activity begins.
ORIGIN III advises founder- and family-owned companies through their most consequential transaction.
So we don't run a templated auction. We run a disciplined, confidential process — designed around the single outcome the owner defines up front, and measured against it at every step.
Sell with ORIGIN III and you pay us nothing — no engagement fee, no success commission, no hidden costs. Your proceeds stay entirely your own.
We position the business and run a discreet, curated process — negotiation and diligence held to a clean close, protecting the team and the story throughout.
We bring acquirers tailored, off-market opportunities — with the diligence support to move from interest to ownership with confidence.
Deep transaction experience across the industries where founder- and family-owned businesses create lasting value. Hover to pause.
Every engagement runs the same disciplined arc — discovery through to a clean transition.
