Value Creation Novo Advisors recently launched a dedicated Value Creation practice in Illinois to boost financial performance, operational execution, financial controls, organizational structures, and AI-enabled capabilities for private equity, venture capital, and investor-backed clients. This presents a cross-selling opportunity to PE firms and portfolio companies seeking turnarounds or performance improvements.

Turnaround Expertise The firm emphasizes deep experience in turnarounds, restructurings, and distressed situations, with a hands-on, data-driven immersion approach. This positions Novo Advisors as a go-to partner for mid-market companies facing financial or operational distress, including potential advisory work on distressed M&A or bankruptcy-related engagements.

Industry Recognition Recent awards and recognitions from The M&A Advisor and TMA Chicago showcase credibility and track record in high-stakes transactions, including successful 363 sales. Leverage this reputation to approach lenders, equity sponsors, and corporate clients prioritizing proven execution and reputable advisers.

Expansion & Capacity Growth milestones include a new Chicago headquarters and expansion of the financial turnaround practice with a growing team. This signals increasing capacity to take on larger engagements and longer-term transformation programs, including multi-site or cross-functional programs for clients.

Technology Enablement A tech-enabled service stack featuring QuickBooks, HubSpot, WordPress, Shopify, Microsoft 365, Canva, Teams, and Adobe Creative Suite suggests capabilities to support clients’ finance, CRM, marketing, and operations improvements. This enables packaged assessment, implementation assistance, and faster delivery of value-enhancing initiatives.
