About SuccessionStart

15 years of succession. One fund.

The story

15 years of succession. One fund.

SuccessionMatching.com launched 15 years ago with a single premise: that business succession should be commission-free, transparent, and accessible. Today, the platform has 2,000+ registered buyers and $681M+ in committed buy-side capital looking for strong, community-minded Canadian businesses.

SuccessionStart is the next chapter. Built on the same marketplace infrastructure, it adds the capital layer that the succession market has always been missing: a fund purpose-built to back skilled newcomers in acquiring the businesses that retiring owners have spent their lives building.
