Darin Brock of TorQuest Partners on Opportunities in Canada
Darin Brock describes the M&A environment in Canada, attractive investment areas for TorQuest, and several of the PE firm's recent investments.
Darin Brock, head of business development for Toronto-based TorQuest Partners, spoke with MMG Editor Kathryn Mulligan about the M&A environment in Canada, attractive investment areas for TorQuest, and several of the firm’s recent investments, including A&W’s Canadian franchise.
Brock has worked in private equity since 2001, and he discussed how he’s seen business development evolve over that time, as more firms recognize the value of having a dedicated member of their team focused on sourcing new opportunities.
This summer, he was named chairman of the board for ACG Toronto, and he spoke on the podcast about his priorities for the chapter over the coming year.
“It’s the stability and our values in this period of global political and economic unrest that we feels really puts Canada in unique position of opportunity.”
ACG Toronto will host its 2018 ACG Capital Connection on Nov. 13-14. For more information, visit acgcapitalconnection.ca.
