private equity firm11
A private equity firm buys with someone else's money and a clock already running. Their funds have a shelf life of roughly a decade, so they typically fund part of the deal with debt, want majority or full control of the business, and plan to sell you on again within three to seven years. None of that makes them a bad buyer — it just means the deal, and the years that follow it, look different from selling to someone who never plans to let go.

strategic acquirer1
A strategic acquirer is a company already operating in your world, not a fund looking for a return. It's buying you to bolt you into something bigger: a product it wants, a customer base it needs, or a team it can't hire fast enough. That changes the deal itself — expect deeper integration into their business, a longer view than a typical financial buyer, and a price that reflects what you unlock for them, not just what your P&L says on its own.
