Innisbrook Equity Group, usually known as IEG, was founded in 1990 but actually dates back to 1975 in England where its principal, Jacques Hopkins, completed his first business sale cross-border transaction.
In those 45 years, all manner of businesses have been
represented as a Transaction Consultant. The common thread is that
virtually all clients were in financial trouble. IEG is recognized as
handling transactions most colleagues shy away from because of their
complexity or heavy attorney involvement.
That experience led to the
development of a training course for members of the IBBA (International
Business Brokers Association) on handling troubled businesses.
Now in
semi-retirement, Jacques concentrates on clients with Intellectual
Property as their keystone as well as Entertainment Industry
involvement.
