BUILDING THE FUTURE OF EMPLOYEE-OWNED COMPANIES.
A Different Kind of Next Chapter
You’ve built more than a business. You’ve built a team, a culture, a reputation and a legacy worth protecting.
Rise ESOP Collective offers business owners an alternative to a traditional sale. We acquire strong companies and bring them into our employee-owned structure, helping preserve what makes them successful while creating new opportunities for the people who helped build them.
The company keeps moving forward. Employees gain a stake in its future. And your legacy has the opportunity to grow for generations to come.
Three Reasons Owners Choose Rise
1
Protect Your Legacy
Your company’s reputation, relationships, and culture matter. We seek healthy businesses we can strengthen for the long haul - not flip for short-term gains.
2
Invest in Your People
By joining an established employee-owned organization, your employees become part of something bigger: a shared success culture built on earned equity and sustainable growth.
3
Join an Established ESOP
Rather than investing years and significant expense creating your own ESOP, you can become part of one that has successfully operated since 1998 - complete with proven governance, experienced leadership, and established systems.
Business Owners
Rise partners with business owners who are interested in selling and seeking a succession plan that sustains their business, want a guaranteed way to protect their employees and local culture, and are seeking a highly competitive alternative to traditional private equity.
Advisors
We collaborate closely with a variety of advisors and partners, including, attorneys, CPAs, wealth managers, business brokers, and investment bankers to help business owners transition their companies with confidence and care.
