It’s no secret that the U.S. has lost millions of jobs over the last three decades, about five million jobs since 2000.
The U.S. used to dominate manufacturing of cars, electronics, textiles and other products. Both low and high tech manufacturing jobs have been relocating to mostly Asian countries, especially China. Although this has been an important issue for decades, it has taken on added importance recently due to three main events:
Paul Dickson has completed over $1B in business transactions over 30 years of international business experience. Mr. Dickson has worked in sales/marketing, operations, law and finance in industries such as advanced manufacturing, microelectronics, semiconductor, software, consumer, and food and beverage.
In 2002, Mr. Dickson started up his own manufacturing software company, built it and sold it to a large public company in 2006 at a significant multiple.
Since selling his own company, Mr. Dickson has helped many business owners build value, prepare for exit and successfully sell their companies.
Mr. Dickson holds a J.D. degree from the University of Oregon and undergraduate degree from the University of Santa Clara. He is a member of the California State Bar, and holds Series 7 and 63 FINRA/Securities Licenses.
When not helping his corporate clients grow, build value and exit, you can find Mr. Dickson exercising at his beloved athletic club, fly fishing on Oregon rivers, skiing and traveling around the world to visit his children.
