How to Read Agglomerate: from idea to IPO in 12 months RTF
From serial entrepreneur and M&A expert Jeremy Harbor, and the author of Progressive Partnerships Callum Laing: a revolutionary book that debunks the myths around entrepreneurship and proposes a disruptive new collaborative model for rapidly growing small to medium sized enterprises (SMEs).While the world obsesses over big multinational corporations and the ‘unicorn’ tech startups, real small businesses lead by talented entrepreneurs have been allowed to starve. The ‘one-in-a-million’ successful, wealthy entrepreneurs are out applying their creative, entrepreneurial know-how to solving the world’s problems, but there remains a huge pool of talent whose ideas are wasted because of a broken investment universe. To empower these entrepreneurs a new investment model is needed.In response, serial entrepreneurs and SME experts, Jeremy Harbour and Callum Laing have developed a revolutionary new model, Agglomeration™. The model was created to democratise wealth and solve the problems entrepreneurs face in growing their businesses and creating value. An Agglomeration combines the best parts of a traditional M&A roll-up with the benefits of an IPO and is inherently a public listed company exclusively for the use of the SME.By empowering talented entrepreneurs through Agglomeration and giving them the tools they need to succeed, there is the potential to change the way SMEs grow and create value and ultimately change the world for the better.Praise for Agglomerate – from idea to IPO in 12 months“This is the game plan for David to not just defeat Goliath, but crush him!”- Ernesto Bent, Owner & Chairman of White Knight Acquisitions“As a champion for growth and ambition, Nasdaq congratulates the continued success of The Marketing Group after its successful IPO on First North.
