2010.01 Without further ado, welcome to our blog!
As Polonius said in Hamlet, “brevity is the soul of wit.” We’ll aim not to waste your time. Exhibit A: we won’t introduce ourselves now. If you know us, that’s great and thanks for visiting. If you don’t know us, great to meet you and our biographies are one click away. If you are here by mistake, exit is the last door on the right but stay a while and you might be glad you did.
Most of the time, this blog will live in the following neighborhoods (and at the intersections thereof):
- Media services – the hardware, software, system, application, service, equipment rental and related companies that support the content creation ecosystem (and the subject of our periodic newsletter also named In Reel Time, click if you would like to be receiving).
- Media, new media and technology – we may be media service bankers, but we know the media service companies and investors that we serve live in a landscape shaped by content and the technologies that create, distribute and manage that content.
- Financial markets, dealmaking and investment banking – our day jobs are as investment bankers. We each have 20+ years of advising companies in connection with M&A, financings and strategic alternatives, that is the seat from which we watch the movie of business.
- Industry gossip – who doesn’t want to hear it from time to time?
We also reserve the right to comment on whatever we want, just as you reserve the right not to read it! We like to think that we are interesting, well-informed people with thought-provoking things to say about other subjects too. So be warned. We will try to spare you posts about our kids, golf scores and other topics that are of vastly greater interest to us than they are to you.
We have added a User’s Manual for the blog that will give you some rules of the road and maybe answer a few questions that come up.
So on with the show, and we really welcome your feedback! Please email David or Megan at any time, in response to these postings, in connection with business opportunities, or just to catch up. And if you like what you see here, please tell your friends.
