In 2009, Jeremy founded the Harbour Club and began teaching mergers and acquisitions (M&A) tactics, specializing in deals that do not require cash up front. His in-depth knowledge of insolvency, company law, and a gift for devising creative deal structures that require little or no funding and no bank leverage have made him a sought-after speaker internationally.
