MICHAEL BLAKE, CEO

Michael has more than three decades of experience across business valuation, venture capital, and investment banking. Over 20 of those years have been dedicated full-time to complex appraisal and enterprise value analysis.

He works with leaders at pivotal moments—capital raises, acquisitions, partner transitions, equity design, intellectual property strategy, and long-term growth decisions. In these moments, emotion runs high and information is incomplete. His role is not to take over the journey, but to guide it with disciplined analysis and steady judgment.

Clients say he gives them the answer they need and is known for asking the question that reframes the entire situation, uncovering hidden risks before they become expensive lessons, and clarifying what truly drives enterprise value—and what merely looks impressive.

Michael combines analytical rigor with practical capital markets experience. He is the author of numerous published articles and a book on valuation and value creation. He has served as a Special Instructor of Valuation in the Georgia Tech/Emory University TIGER program and provides continuing professional education to professional appraisers.

He holds a B.A. in Economics from Franklin & Marshall College and an M.B.A. in Finance from Georgetown University. He is a CFA Charter holder, an Accredited Senior Appraiser with The American Society of Appraisers (ASA), Accredited in Business Appraisal Review (ABAR), and accredited by the Business Valuation Institute of the United Kingdom.
