Adeptus Acquisition was founded and is independently owned by Joao "JP" Carvalho. For the past decade JP worked in equity research in New York City where he and his wife are currently based. For the past 5 years he worked at a fund where he invested in US public industrial companies as part of a broader equity portfolio managed by his team.

JP recently left that job and launched a full time self funded search as owning a business is something he's dreamed of since he was young. His goal is to make this the next phase of his career, with the intent of acquiring a business and operating it from the existing location for many years to come.

JP holds a deep respect for small business owners. He knows how many years of hard work goes into building a business and he wants to focus on maintaining the legacy of the current owners while setting up the business for future growth and success. Adeptus Acquisition is not a PE firm, JP is an independent investor with no outside capital. We seek to minimize disruption to the current business and its employees, and instead focus on a long term vision rather than a quick dollar.
