  • Lenders

  • A 100-day plan ready before close, not after

Proton transactions sit at the intersection of healthcare M&A, infrastructure finance, and a small operator universe. For investors and practices buying into the space, diligence done from a generalist seat tends to miss what matters; ours is built from the inside out.

We support strategic acquirers, private equity, infrastructure capital, and operating practices evaluating proton centers, accelerator programs, or related infrastructure platforms. The deal universe is small enough that judgment, relationships, and operational fluency matter more than process volume.

We work alongside legal, banking, and clinical advisors, not in place of them, and focus on the operational and technical questions that quietly determine whether a deal makes sense at the price.

Sample scope

  • Operational, technical, and commercial diligence
  • Pricing and valuation perspective grounded in operating reality
  • Management presentation review and IC support
  • Risk surfacing on equipment, vendor, and clinical operations
  • Post-close stabilization and 100-day planning
  • Sourcing input on adjacent and follow-on opportunities
