I was at Epicon’s Dubai Family Office Summit yesterday in Dubai where an all day event was held with panels and socialising for family offices and businesses to share ideas and some select investment pitches.
It was friendly, productive and immensely educational with excellent insights shared across AI, tokenisation of real estate assets, family office projections, etc.
More importantly it shows the high level a business owner needs to bring their business if they plan to ever exit, sell, or attract investment.
No one gave a pitch saying how they bring the customers themselves.
Or how much hard work, long hours and sacrifices they made
Or how many likes they have on their social media page.
No they talked about real opportunities.
Real problems their businesses solved.
And they only had five minutes to do so.
It tells me one thing.
If you are looking to one day sell your business be aware that the bar is getting higher by the day.
And the longer you delay the more likely you will join the sad cohort of more than 7 out of 10 business owners who want to sell their company one day and fail… even though often it’s a profitable business.

Then decide if it’s time to take the next step — or sit with what those answers reveal.
I’m here either way.
