Primary activity: Other social work activities without accommodation n.e.c.
Sector: Human health & social work
Investor take
Pursue
Active trading company with a 70-year-old founder — textbook succession opportunity.

Opportunity 75/100 (strong), bankability 75/100. Strong seller-intent signal (63/100, director aged 70). Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure. Most likely exit: strategic trade sale (73/100).

Data confidence

Overall: low (46/100)
