About this listen

In this episode, Ade Aboyeji and Princess Ovine, explore Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition (ETA) – a powerful but often overlooked path to business ownership that doesn't require starting from scratch. Drawing from real-world experiences and case studies, they break down how aspiring entrepreneurs can buy existing businesses instead of building new ones, while candidly discussing the unique challenges faced by Black entrepreneurs and those from underrepresented communities in accessing capital and navigating deals. From finding the right motivation beyond money to maintaining authenticity in negotiations, this conversation offers practical strategies and resources for anyone looking to become a business owner through acquisition – whether in the U.S., Africa, or beyond. Perfect for entrepreneurs tired of the "disrupt everything" narrative and ready to explore a proven path to ownership.
