Value Alpha Marketplace
Join a network of owners, buyers and the professionals around a deal.
Owners
Start from a Value Alpha valuation or enter the key figures. The name is never published, and identity opens only after you approve a request.
Buyers and investors
An approved application and an accepted NDA come first. Identity and the data room open once the owner approves your request.
Advisors and counsel
The letter of intent, due diligence and closing happen between the parties and their own counsel. Value Alpha provides the letter of intent template and the record of each introduction.
Value Alpha Marketplace does not take part in the parties' discussions of price, structure or terms, does not sign the transaction documents, and never holds or transmits funds.

Watch the process, in under a minute.
From a valuation to an anonymized teaser, the anonymity check, an access request and the owner's approval.
The process
How it works, A to Z
Five steps. Every step is logged in an introduction record that both sides can rely on.
- Step 01
Value
Start from a Value Alpha valuation or enter the key figures. Revenue, EBITDA and the asking price are published as you enter them; the name never is.
- Step 02
Publish anonymously
The anonymity check tests the listing before it goes live: how specific its sector, region and size are, and whether the text points to the business.
- Step 03
Qualified requests
Buyers and investors need an approved application and an accepted NDA to request access. You see who is asking.
- Step 04
Your approval
Identity and the data room open only after you approve a request. Every reveal is logged.
- Step 05
Your deal, off platform
The letter of intent, due diligence and closing happen between you and the counterparty. Value Alpha provides templates and the record of the introduction.
Anonymity
How anonymity works
A teaser is designed so that the business cannot be recognized from it.
What the public sees
A reference code, the sector, the region, revenue, EBITDA and the asking price. No name, no address, no documents.
What an approved buyer sees
The identity and the data room, only after the owner approves that specific request. Access can be withdrawn.
The anonymity check
Before publishing, the anonymity check looks at the sector, the region and the size band, at the wording, and at the exact figures and the yearly financial table, and tells the owner what could identify the business. A listing that is too specific must be made more general before it goes live. A person at Value Alpha reviews every listing before it is published.
Figures in a teaser are provided by the owner and are not verified by Value Alpha.

Fees
How the success fee works
Listing a business costs nothing. Any fee is set out in the agreement each party signs, and applies only where it has been switched on.
- Value Alpha Marketplace never holds, receives or transmits any funds. A fee, where it applies, is invoiced directly after closing.
- This page is not legal advice. Review the listing agreement with your own counsel before signing.
