End of Year Update | 2021

2021 ushered in a new era of Chesapeake Corporate Advisors. With a number of deal closings and new additions to our team, we have become an even stronger CCA. Watch our recap video to see the highlights of 2021 from Managing Director, Charlie Maskell, Managing Director, Mike Zuidema, and Director Tim Brasel.

Our Investment Banking team completed 12 deal transactions in the Engineering, GovCon, Healthcare, Technology, and Business Service sectors. In our recap video, Tim Brasel discusses the trends driving transaction activity in 2021 and what he anticipates from the market in 2022.

In 2021, our team worked with over 100 business owners to help them identify strategic alternatives as they plan for key events. Mike Zuidema discusses CCA’s unique approach to corporate advisory, impending market changes, and the strategic assessment that guides business owners through their alternatives.

Transaction Highlights

No matter how big our team gets (we welcomed three new team members this year) our #1 priority is always you, our clients, and partners. We have had the pleasure of creating new relationships, cultivating partnerships, and helping long-term clients close deals this year.
