Advisory and origination in the private capital markets. The Firm serves investment firms, family offices, and private lenders, and companies and their owners, across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.

The Firm

Ascentivelab Group is a private capital markets firm, retained on both sides of the transaction, across acquisitions, capital formation, and ownership transition.

It advises a limited number of investment firms, lenders, and private investors on one side, and companies and their owners on the other. Because both sides are clients, the Firm's counsel is accountable to the relationship, not to any single transaction.
