Read founder-verified reviews of Skylight Partners below, from founders who hired the firm as their sell-side advisor whether the deal closed or not.

What to know about Skylight Partners

Skylight Partners has built its franchise in Mid-Market, Tech, where founders running a sale process often turn to firms with deep sector pattern recognition. The senior bench, anchored by Andrew Lo, sets the tone for how engagements run from the first call through whatever outcome the process produces. Founders evaluating Skylight Partners typically compare it against other boutique houses with similar sector emphasis.

Deal sweet spot at Skylight Partners sits in the $15M-$150M band. That target range shapes everything: which buyers get the call, how the process is paced, and how the firm allocates senior banker attention. Founders working with Skylight Partners should expect a process tuned to that band; founders far below or above it sometimes find a better fit elsewhere.

Geography matters more than founders expect. Skylight Partners operates out of Toronto, Canada, and its strongest buyer-side relationships tend to cluster around that orbit. For sellers running a global process, that can be either an advantage (concentrated relationships) or a constraint (thinner reach in other regions). Founders should ask directly: which buyers have you placed with in the last 24 months, and where are they.
