We engage selectively with capitalized founders and investors in Seattle and nationwide:
Seattle's M&A market is heavily influenced by the presence of Amazon, Microsoft, and Boeing, which create a massive ecosystem of technology vendors, cloud services companies, and aerospace suppliers ripe for acquisition. The region's strength in cloud computing, AI, and SaaS has made it the second-largest tech M&A market after the Bay Area. Biotech activity is growing rapidly, anchored by the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center and Allen Institute.
Seattle deal valuations for tech companies approach Bay Area levels but with slightly less competition. The concentration of technical talent means acquired companies can scale engineering teams faster than in most markets.
Washington state has no personal income tax, making it attractive for founders considering exits and for acquirers looking to relocate talent. The region's tech ecosystem ensures a steady pipeline of growth-stage companies seeking acquisition.
Washington's non-compete statute (RCW 49.62) voids non-competes for employees earning under approximately $120,000 annually (adjusted for inflation) and limits duration to 18 months, which affects workforce retention strategies post-acquisition.
Our experience with Pacific Northwest technology companies provides deep understanding of the region's business culture and regulatory landscape.
