Drake Star built a global investment bank around one narrow premise: technology deals need specialists who can read both the code and the room. More than 500 transactions later, its compass still points across borders.
Opportunity Network is a members-only, invitation-based B2B platform that connects vetted CEOs, investors and dealmakers across borders so they can raise capital, buy and sell companies, and originate proprietary deal flow. Founded in 2014 by Brian Pallas out of a Columbia Business School side project, it pairs matching algorithms with a human concierge service and screens members through banking partners like UBS. The network reports 52,000+ members across 130+ countries and roughly $530 billion in transaction flow.
