Dr. Schramski, President and Managing Partner of VERTESS, was singled out for this honor because of his strong support for AM&AA’s certification program, his willingness to share his knowledge with other professionals in the field, and his engagement with the AM&AA community through conferences and other meetings.
“Tom Schramski has set a new standard by establishing an M&A firm where all advisors are Certified Merger & Acquisition Advisors®,” said Michael Adhikari, CM&AA and member of the AM&AA advisory board. “He is committed to continuously improving and evolving the role of the M&A Advisor.”
Dr. Schramski said this honor is a strong reflection of the value VERTESS provides to its clients.
“This may be an individual award,” said Dr. Schramski, “but it speaks to the commitment the VERTESS team has made to operating with integrity and intelligence in the M+A field. Our Managing Directors all hold the CM&AA credential, which is based on our knowledge and professionalism as M+A Advisors. And we have all owned and successfully exited healthcare businesses, giving us a unique understanding of our clients’ needs as they work towards selling, merging with or acquiring other healthcare firms.”
