I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have had the opportunity to learn and develop under Ben’s mentorship during my time as an Associate at Ascento Capital. His expertise in investment banking is not just impressive but also immensely educational.
One of the most memorable aspects of working with Ben was his dedication to his team’s development. He always showed genuine care and was consistently willing to invest extra time to answer any questions that arose.
Furthermore, Ben provided me with unparalleled insight into the Tech M&A space. Under his mentorship, I had the opportunity to meaningfully engage with incredibly exciting clients in ways that I would not have been able to elsewhere. For anyone looking to learn more about the M&A space and get hands-on experience facilitating transactions, I couldn’t recommend Ben and Ascento Capital more highly.

I had a great experience working with Ben on a sell-side M&A transaction for Proant, a leading IoT antenna company in Sweden. I have known Ben for many years and worked with him effectively in the past on mutual clients. I referred Ben to Proant per a client introduction agreement and Ben successfully closed the Proant transaction. I highly recommend working with Ben.
