Could work very well
Nice suggestion
I wonder what size fund you would want
Search funds are quite an established thing among MBA graduates.
Upon completion of the program, some get a 2-year funding for searching a potential buy (that’s where search fund come from), typically a SME with an old owner and with replacement issues.
Once (if) found, the fund gets expanded with additional investors + debt in order to purchase and run the company
Target Companies are in the 5-20M$ revenue range, with high upside potential for growth
PS the first fund (the search process) you typically cover salary and some searching expenses for two years for the searcher, so it’s not a lot of money
