Mila Ridge Partners

We established Mila Ridge Partners with two goals: 1. We seek to buy, run, and grow a business in Northern New England. Drawing upon over 15 years of experience as operators, managers, and venture-based entrepreneurs, we are excited to find an existing organization and team that we can sustain, evolve, and grow indefinitely. 2. We wanted to offer a visible way to offer our time, resources, and support to other entrepreneurs and business-owners in our communities. We love to partner, both formally and informally, with people and organizations who feel they would benefit from drawing upon our experiences or having us roll up our sleeves alongside you.
