opportunities in these uncertain times.
Experience when it matters most
Education businesses are built to serve students, families, schools, and professionals — and to create something lasting. MidCap believes a successful transaction should protect that mission while delivering full and fair value. This philosophy is grounded in deep, real-world operating experience in the education sector. Paul Kanarek, former CEO of CollegeWise and a founder of The Princeton Review, has spent decades building, scaling, and advising education businesses that combine strong outcomes with durable economics. That firsthand perspective informs how value, risk, and long-term impact are evaluated in education-focused transactions.
In partnership with MidCap, Paul brings together sector-specific insight and sophisticated M&A advisory expertise in a way few firms can replicate. Education owners are guided through a disciplined preparation process that clarifies the business narrative, highlights sustainable programs and outcomes, and anticipates the questions serious buyers will ask. The objective is to identify the right partner and transaction structure — one that supports employees, protects customers, and enables a strong and intentional next chapter.
Education deals are different. They involve real stakeholders, real outcomes, and often more complexity than other industries. MidCap brings a senior-led, highly tailored approach built for owners — not volume. We run a disciplined, confidential process, create competition for your business, and guide you to a result that balances value, mission alignment, and long-term fit.
We learn your goals, timeline, and what matters most to you. Then we assess your business the way buyers will — your outcomes, retention, revenue reliability, scalability, and leadership — so we can position you clearly.
We walk through your profitability, what similar education businesses are worth today, and what you can expect in value. We also explain deal structures in plain English — cash, rollover equity, earnouts, or partnerships — and what each means for you.
We help you weigh every path and the right buyer universe for each. MidCap runs a confidential, competitive process and advocates for the best value and structure — while protecting your mission, your team, and your customers.
