Real Help for Families Who Own Companies
We work with family business and family office owners to align family vision, increase profits and business value, and design transitions that work—for everyone. Every journey is led by our founder, The Family Business Guy, and supported by a small, trusted team behind the scenes.
Our Story
The seed for iBridge was planted 30 years ago—when I was thrown into the fire of a second-generation family business. I lived the tension between legacy and leadership, tradition and growth, family and business. Those early lessons weren’t theoretical—they were personal.
Over the years, I built and scaled two of my own family companies—one to a successful exit, the other into a lasting family-owned asset. I also co-founded a $1B+ company and advised over 150 family enterprises. Along the way, I saw the same problem repeat: owners facing the most important chapter of their life—without a roadmap or real help.
In 2019, over coffee in Charleston, the name iBridge came to life. Inspired by the Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge, it symbolizes the path we help families build—between where they are and where they want to go. Strong. Clear. Intentional.
iBridge isn’t just another advisory firm—it’s the one I wish existed when I was in the owner’s seat. Today, we walk alongside families to align vision, unlock value, and design transitions that actually work—for everyone involved.
