Ep 381 How to Know When to Sell our Business: Inside Nasdaq's Acquisition of Quandl. Lessons on Timing and Negotiation for Entrepreneurs with Tammer Kamel

17 Mar 2023

Description

In 2011, Tammer Kamel launched Quandl, a company that provided investors with data designed to give them a competitive trading edge. For example, Quandl offered subscriptions that let investors access private jet flight information for public companies as a predictor for M&A activity.  By 2018, Quandl had grown to 75 employees. Kamel saw industry giants entering the space, but knowing the time and capital investment it would take to build a competitive offering, he believed they would prefer to acquire Quandl. Kamel began shopping the business around, and shortly after, Nasdaq acquired Quandl for a life-changing sum.
