🏡 The succession challenge

MSME owners face a number of challenges when it comes to succession. 

• For family-owned businesses, there may be family conflict at play, or worse, there might not be anyone to take over at all. 
• Protecting the business’ legacy is another question. If owners do decide to sell, how can they ensure that their business will carry on the same values post-acquisition?

🔤 The ABCs of Timah Partners

Timah is a permanent holding company that is in it for the long haul. 

• They acquire MSMEs from retiring owners without the intention of selling, so your business (and your people) are taken care of. 

Not just acquisition. Timah is also developing their CEO-in-Training program to foster future operators.

• They partner with veteran CEOs to help the next generation of MSME leaders master the fundamentals and take the reins.
