Don't Take Our Word For It

"My team was at a critical and vulnerable juncture battling with much larger competitors in the high growth cloud portfolio management solutions sector. Curt and his team went the extra mile in helping us define our purpose, strategy, and critical path objectives so that we were primed to do exactly what we needed to do -- drive a successful acquisition and exit within 12 months."
Matt Higgins
RSE Ventures and Miami Dolphins
"Curt's magic is his ability to observe and translate universal principles that he learned in combat across any industry - sports, restaurants, venture capital or cybersecurity. His commitment and passion is contagious; it pulls everyone he is in contact with to the next level."
Rob Schimek
AIG Americas
"Aiki Partners is the special operations team for businesses.
After the 2008 financial crisis, the internal fallout was intensely difficult to navigate. Curt and his team ignited our team's inner purpose and reinstated our ability to execute, resulting in exceeding our revenue and profitability goals as well as driving engagement scores higher than any other business unit in the company. It was a life changing experience for our team - personally and professionally."
Tim Lemmon
Oath
"This team has a rare combination of passion, belief, scalable process, and execution. This is not a PowerPoint advisor squad but a superpower team that brings thinking, focused energy, and specifics with a practical 'will-do,' roll-up-the-sleeves attitude. Progress had stalled in an important business area...Working together we quickly connected an effective operating network of 'doers' across the company and focused it on one clear super-stretch business goal. Over the course of months, we went from declines to triple-digit growth. Perhaps more importantly, we created a highly collaborative 'team of teams' culture that will lead to stronger outcomes down the road.
Demanding, fun, and rewarding - an impressive feat that we are committed to replicating elsewhere."
Jim Kim
Builders VC and Formation 8
"Curt and the team are our go-to resource for navigating all the challenges associated with high growth, venture-backed companies. When completing missions for my team and any of our portfolio companies, Aiki Partners brings its inherent humility to learn, operational experience to execute, and fundamental passion to overcome any obstacle. Furthermore, the team is instrumental in defining and building company culture and steadily serves as trusted advisors to our great leaders. I only wish I had brought them in earlier!"
