The business of change.

Why Ithron?

Because you need more than advice—you need results. Ithron bridges the gap between strategic consulting and full-service investment banking, delivering what you need when you need it. 

 

We guide your business through the toughest decisions in finance, strategy, operations, and communications. Whether it’s gearing up for a transaction, navigating integrations, or securing capital, we’re by your side—before, during, and after. 

 

Principal Michael Grotell knows how to drive growth and profitability. With a background in global media, marketing, and B2B recurring revenue models, from seed through unicorns and IPOs -- across operating and advisor roles, he’s been where you are. And he’ll get you where you want to go.

Ithron is a highly effective advisory firm providing investment banking (M&A, restructuring, etc.), private capital formation, and strategy and communications consulting services.
 
We support all stages of the private company lifecycle, from strategy formulation to capital raising to exit, with support for digital transformation and change management; as well as strategy and communications consulting, and buy-side M&A support for larger companies. 
 
With a deal background that spans seed through IPO (and everything in between), an operating background in market research, a client background that includes the world's best brands, media, and advertising companies; experience in multinational media corporate development, and consumer and new technology investor relations, alongside high net worth marketing for art, jewelry, funds, and real estate, Ithron is uniquely positioned to provide peerless strategic support to executives and investors.
