Isn't it time to have peace of mind and a team you can trust when planning your business transition?
Mergers & Acquisitions is a serious industry that can feel impersonal and complicated. That's why iKadre was created.
We help women business owners feel supported and heard as they navigate the legal, financial, and business-transforming decisions needed to transition their business, whether in an exit, an expansion, or as part of an integration. It doesn't have to be lonely to move to the next chapter of your business -- you can be successful and heard.
We specialize in partnering with women-owned businesses because as a female-founded company, we understand what you need and what you want when it is time to transition your business to the next chapter.

Why iKadre: Our Values Drive Us
Our
Solutions
Integration is more than simply combining names or offices. You need guidance from a planning partner who can help mitigate risk, align corporate cultures and create a strategic roadmap for successful change. From offering planning and strategic advice at the start of an integration, to audits of state and federal requirements, managing KPI success, and evaluating leadership, our team can guide you through the sometimes challenging process of change. With three decades of experience, you can trust we are the partners you need.
When you began your business, you worked hard and hoped for it to grow and succeed. But now that actually has happened, you need an advisor you can trust to help navigate expansion choices like new markets, joint ventures, strategic partnerships and other options available to help you scale. Our unique, people-first approach helps you reduce risk, protect your operations and brand, and create value. It’s a state of permanent readiness that gives you flexibility and options for expansion.
The best time to begin planning for your exit from your business is when you start it. That way you can customize your exit planning to your desired outcome while you grow. Creating a strategy around how to exit your business, no matter how long you’ve been in business, ensures that you have the highest chance to not only transition out of your business, but you transform into the next chapter of your work life. With a partner like iKadre, you can be certain that you have the support you need and the people you trust to make your exit easier.
For any business owner considering a sale, I wholeheartedly endorse the services of iKadre. Their unique blend of top-tier professional expertise and genuine personal connection sets them apart in the M&A landscape. Their commitment to excellence and client-first approach have left a lasting impression on me. I am confident that any business, regardless of size or industry, will significantly benefit from their unmatched expertise and dedication.

It’s all about partnership
A few words from our clients.
What impresses me most about Natalie is her attention to details when it comes to working with her clients. She does an unbelievable amount of research to make sure that her clients are positioned optimally before entering a partnership, or fully exiting their business.
Agata Chydzinski
I highly recommend Natalie for her leadership skills, her emotional intelligence used when making decisions and her dedication to successful outcomes. I hope our paths cross again and I am able to work with her in the future.
Joe Cherry
Natalie became a trusted advisor to me managing program outcomes at a very senior level but also the team dynamics, corporate wide communications, program finances and vendor management. She helps stake holders be successful and drives successful outcomes for the business.
