The firm story
Built to be the sourcing engine you can't staff in-house.
Six years ago, Sentinel started as a simple bet: that most acquisitive platforms were losing their best targets to brokers and their own limited reach — not to bad judgment. So we built the opposite of a broker's list. A proprietary data engine, a team that calls owners directly, in their own language, and a discipline — one target, one partner — that keeps every introduction exclusive to the mandate it was sourced for.
That engine now reaches owners directly at scale, has arranged qualified calls week after week since 2019, and has supported closings alongside partners — ranging from single dental practices to multi-location platform acquisitions — all while never once naming a partner publicly. Confidentiality isn't a policy we tolerate. It's the product.
Wolfson Equity is our parent practice — a North American M&A and investment firm. Sentinel is its buy-side origination arm, built specifically to source, qualify, and introduce off-market acquisition targets for PE-backed consolidators and acquisitive platforms.
Every principal on this page is hands-on in every mandate we run. There is no junior tier we hand you off to.
