From Our Founder
We're building DQM to be the resource for founders I wish I had when building my first business.
About DQM
Our Mission
As a founder, advisor, and investor, I regularly experienced smaller businesses struggling to access critical advisory services, particularly when raising capital and undertaking M&A transactions.


Three previous businesses, three graduate degrees, two professional licenses, and two children later – plus over a decade in traditional advisory and investor roles – I set out to recreate the advisory firm, this time explicitly designing DQM to be an equalizer for entrepreneurs.
If you share our frustration with the current advisory landscape and are intrigued by the notion that there may be a better way, we’d love to talk.
-Steve Simon, Founder of DQM
