Lutz M&A Expands Services with Acquisition of Corporate Ventures

With the acquisition of Omaha-based mergers and acquisition advisors Corporate Ventures, Lutz M&A has brought together two of the area’s most prominent names and expanded its service capabilities for business owners seeking first-class M&A advisory services. This merger significantly grows the Lutz M&A division and further solidifies Lutz as the premier accounting and business solutions firm in the region.

According to Bill Kenedy, Lutz M&A and Consulting Shareholder, “The acquisition of Corporate Ventures creates significant opportunity for Lutz M&A to provide business owners the highest level of expertise in all areas throughout its corporate transition.” Brad Lehl, vice president of Corporate Ventures, has joined the Lutz M&A team following the acquisition. He brings nearly 20 years of experience in mergers and acquisitions, private equity, and corporate finance to Lutz. Kenedy notes that “Brad’s significant experience is a valuable asset to the division and enhances the successful relationships we’ve established with our clients and provides additional business transition services to non-clients.”

Serving small and mid-market businesses, Lutz M&A works with strategic buyers and private equity firms from around the country for larger-value businesses and identifies qualified, potential buyers from the Omaha area for smaller businesses. The Lutz M&A marketing process draws maximum interest to businesses by creating compelling stories that resonate with potential buyers.
