We’re the tenacious partner who will work closely with you to create a strategic path forward. A path that positions your startup for optimum performance, prolonged growth, and limited risks.

Valitas Capital Partners is a relationship-focused merger & acquisition (M&A), corporate finance, and strategic advisory firm. We collaborate with ambitious owners of high-performing businesses with a potential value of at least $100 million, to discover, unleash, and realize their full business value potential. Owners and their leadership teams rely on Valitas when they: 1. Want to triple the value of their business in five years or less, but realize they lack the expertise and experience to achieve this alone. 2. Want to sell their company now, assured they will look back after the transaction knowing they got the best possible outcome. 3. Seek the peace of mind of taking some chips off the table now, to secure their family’s financial future without giving up control or the future increased value in their business. 4. Are anguished they had to say no to growth opportunities they worked so hard to create because their bank cannot keep up with the needs of their fast-growing business. 5. Are frustrated at the lack of traction they are getting with their acquisition efforts, whether it is not seeing enough quality acquisition opportunities, or by wasting time and money coming up empty-handed in auctions. 6. Are dispirited by the significant investments in expensive specialists, technology, systems, and financial modeling capabilities required to execute their audacious strategic goals. 7. Are intrigued by the idea of selling their business to their management team over time but want to recognize the full value now, while getting their cash payments as quickly as possible.

After fifteen years of successful day camp programming in Markham, Adventure Valley Day Camp has found a new home in Oakville! Adventure Valley Day Camp is a traditional-style day camp for children ages 4 – 12 years. Children participate in a variety of different activities each day, our campers get to experience it all in one place! We go beyond summer fun to provide experiences that foster growth and develop the whole child. We focus on building life skills, like confidence, determination, kindness, and positivity. We embed our values of trust, community, fun and curiosity into everything we do. We go where our campers can discover new experiences in a safe environment, giving them the freedom to explore who they really are, play in an inclusive zone, and find out what it means to be a friend. And we always go to a place where campers are embraced by the spirit and values of our camp community.
