About Us
Who we are
Led by our founder and managing partner, Nicolas Steegmann, Wakefield Legacy is looking to acquire a business in which we can work with the owner(s) to seamlessly transition them out of the day-to-day operations. We wholly believe that the success of a business begins with strong focus on its people and a set of shared values. We will focus on preserving your legacy and working towards the long-term growth of the company, creating value for all stakeholders including employees, customers, partners, and investors.
Wakefield Legacy is run by a single professional, backed by a team of well-regarded entrepreneurs, investors and operators. We are not a private equity firm or a strategic buyer and will not manage a portfolio of companies or integrate your business into a larger entity. We are focused on operating a single company. We are committed to working directly with you and structuring a tailored transaction that best meets your personal and professional goals. Common situations include the following:
At or near retirement
Planning to pursue other entrepreneurial opportunities
Looking to reduce day-to-day involvement
Seeking a liquidity event or exit
