🎙️ Making Deals That Matter – Grant McGaugh of Cornhusker Capital on Tech, Trust, and Timing
In this episode of Business Ninjas, host Andrew Lippman talks with Grant McGaugh, Senior Managing Director at Cornhusker Capital, about what it really takes to get deals done in today’s volatile markets. Grant shares his journey from tech and healthcare IT into the world of investment banking—and how Cornhusker Capital uses deep industry knowledge and straight-shooting strategy to bring serious credibility to the lower middle market. From valuations to exits, AI platforms to geospatial tech, Grant breaks down how Cornhusker helps companies grow, get funded, or sell smart.
💡 Where Investment Banking Meets Industry Insight
Cornhusker Capital sets itself apart by blending financial expertise with real-world technical experience. With a strong track record in tech, healthcare, and infrastructure, the firm supports clients through mergers, acquisitions, recapitalizations, and exits—with a marathon mindset, not a quick sprint. Their no-cost, no-BS investment thesis (which other firms might charge $30–50K for) builds trust early by showing founders what their business is really worth—before they ever go to market. And now, Cornhusker is going global, launching a financial center in the U.S. Virgin Islands to help stabilize U.S.-Caribbean capital flow through bold new legislation and smart infrastructure. Trust, transparency, and tactical depth—that’s what makes them different.
