Telecom Technology and Services Investment Banking

Telecom Investment Banking

FOCUS’ seasoned team of investment banking professionals has years of experience providing M&A and corporate finance advisory services to middle market clients in the telecommunications industry. Our team consists of two professionals with backgrounds that include years of experience in guiding middle market clients through M&A and capital raising transactions.  Our transaction experience covers a broad spectrum of telecom-related businesses including:

  • Telecommunications hardware and software
  • Incumbent and competitive telecom service providers
  • Telecom providers to Federal agencies (civilian and DOD)
  • Data centers and colocation
  • Contact center technology
  • Wireless and RFID technologies
  • Network support services such as engineering, construction and staffing
  • Equipment distribution and supply chain services

We are excited to bring this expertise to bear to help our middle market clients reach their strategic objectives.

Unlike most telecom groups serving the middle market we

  • Devote significant senior level resources to executing transactions for lower middle market clients
  • Have a breadth of knowledge that covers most segments of the telecom industry
  • Have a proven transaction methodology for delivering results
  • Equally comfortable with buy side and sell side M&A
  • Leverage an experienced team of research professionals
  • Have a national presence with coverage of both the east and west coasts

This is an exciting time for middle market telecommunications companies.  Consolidation among the industry’s largest companies creates opportunities for smaller, nimbler competitors to develop the innovative technologies and business models that will shape the industry in the years ahead.  Our team travels to various conferences and meetings throughout the U.S. and we are always delighted to receive introductions to innovative companies in our industry.  Whether or not you are planning a strategic transaction in the next few months or at some indeterminate time in the future, we would be delighted to hear from you and initiate a dialogue.
