What we are


The Sage Exchange is an engine designed to accelerate the growth of both start-up and existing companies. For company success, all the pieces of the pie have to be in place, in the right mix, with the right dynamics. Many companies fail to grow because they don’t have all the right pieces.

The Sage Exchange offers an efficient way to add the missing pieces – the skilled people, as well as the operational and financial assets. To enable growth that so many companies are missing, our community works with you as a stakeholder to provide:
  • Talented human capital and other operational assets – an “Organization Exchange”
  • Streamlined deal-making – an efficient “Deal Exchange”

Who needs us


Companies that aren’t realizing their potential.

Start-ups . . . especially those that have not been able to secure funding. We can turn intellectual property into a fully developed, fundable business.

Existing Companies . . . that need a jump-start. We can provide restructuring, reinventing, retarting, re-engineering for:

   • Turnarounds that need re-structuring or a shake-up.
   • Sputterers that have not been able to secure adequate funding.
   • Underperformers that need critical transformation.
   • Spin-offs that need to organize into a new, standalone entity.
   • Growing concerns ready to “exit.”

Who we are


A select community of “Sages” who have been CEOs, CTOs, CFOs, CMOs, VPs of Engineering and Sales, financial rain-makers, and lawyers – all the talented people companies need.

Our Sages have been key players in highly successful ventures. They posess an extraordinary collective Rolodex. They have founded companies, developed technologies that have changed the world, financed ventures and grown them, and engineered successful “liquidity events” through acquisition, IPOs, and LBOs.

Many of our Sages are internationally recognized experts. Some are industry “icons.”

Our Sages are graduates from prestigious educational institutions such as MIT, Harvard , Stanford, Caltech, Oxford, University of Toronto, Queen’s College. Most hold graduate degrees in engineering, business, economics, or law.

How we work


The Sage Exchange participates with your company as a stakeholder. We create common interests in complete alignment. We succeed together. And, the structure of the arrangement is flexible, tailored to the individual organization, situation and need.

We work with you face-to-face and through on-line, collaborative communities to streamline day-to-day interactions.
