Morgan Hill Partners, an integrated partnership of expert entrepreneurs and operators, announced today it has appointed Noel Burkman to establish its Chicago office to provide its extremely valuable Operational Engineering services to growth-stage companies and financial sponsors with growth-stage portfolios.
Morgan Hill Partners works with growth-stage companies and financial sponsors with growth-stage portfolios, helping them achieve success quickly and more frequently than the industry standard. Morgan Hill's methodology, called Operational Engineering, pairs our elite team with a proven process to achieve superior results.
A software developer by training, Burkman's early career was defined by a series of collaborations with ecommerce startups in Chicago and Silicon Valley. During a five year period, Noel was the CTO of a digital media platform that went on to raise $130M; the marketing strategist for an ecommerce startup that sold for $140M; and the advisor to a technology company developing lossless compression that was also successfully exited.
"We are excited to announce our expansion into the Chicagoland area with Noel leading our efforts there," says Jim Barnish, Managing Partner, Morgan Hill Partners. "A Chicago native, Noel's breadth of competency and ability to form a symbiotic relationship between product development and strategy is hard to find today."
"Chicago's always had practicality to it when it comes to business," says Burkman. "MHP brings that of practicality in the form of experience, empowering founders to focus on productization. A win-win for founders and their financial sponsors. I'm thrilled to be setting up the MHP outpost in my home town."
