Gary Richards
Gary Richards has coordinated the planning, capitalization, development, and operation of more than 100 businesses since 1984. He has raised over $120 million in equity and debt financing for them.
In addition to his business brokerage duties, Gary is an adjunct member of the faculty and a business advisor at the Chemeketa Community College Small Business Development Center. Here, he provides client companies with services aimed at “turning management issues into management controls.” The two activities dovetail nicely, he reports, because of the need for business and financial analysis in business acquisition and sales.”
