ETA Connect #2
ETA Connect is a morning coffee for people interested in Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition — buying a business instead of starting one from scratch.
Whether you're actively searching for a deal, quietly running the numbers, or just curious what it takes to own a small business, this is a low-key place to meet others walking the same path.
No pitches. No panels. No speakers. Just coffee and honest conversation about deal flow, financing, diligence, and what running the thing actually looks like after you close.
Who it's for
Searchers actively looking at deals
First-time buyers running the numbers
Owners who've already been through a close
Lenders, brokers, and advisors who work with all of the above
The curious — no commitment required
Format
Show up, grab a coffee, talk to people. That's it. Come and go as your morning allows.
Good to know
Free to attend. Coffee is on you — grab whatever you like at the counter.
Sponsorship
ETA Connect is looking for a coffee sponsor. If your business works with searchers, buyers, or SMB owners in the Triangle, this is a small room of the exact right people. Reach out at hi@rdusmb.com.
