Business owners with eight‑figure ambitions don't surround themselves with just anyone

Join the private membership bringing together British owners determined to build substantially bigger businesses, achieve significant exits and create serious personal wealth

Founders in conversation at a Rare Company session

You've come a long way, but you're nowhere near where you want to be.

You've built a successful company and you've proved you can do it.

But you're not interested in spending the next decade running the same business, making the same money and dealing with the same problems.

You want to build something substantially bigger.

  • A £10m, £20m or £50m company.
  • An acquisition that changes everything.
  • A management team that can run the business without you.
  • An eventual exit that provides financial security for generation after generation.

Rare Company was created to bring owners with those ambitions together.

Not to swap business cards.

Not to sell services to each other.

Not to brag or preach.

But to help each other get there.

Not every successful business owner belongs here.

Some have built a good company and are perfectly happy keeping it that way.

Rare Company is for those who want a lot more.

Owners who are still pushing to grow, acquire, build proper leadership, increase the value of their company or prepare for a significant exit.

We carefully select every member, because the quality of the people around the table determines the quality of the membership.

Our members are typically at £2m-£20m turnover (we have a minimum £1m annual turnover or significant cash exit entry requirement).

But ambition matters far more than the number you're doing today.

In their words.

Since joining, my group has increased in value to nearly £10 million, and I've taken more time for my family and invested over £500,000 outside of the business. Compared to advisors, this has been a major breath of fresh air.”

Matt R · Managing Director, Property Investment Firm

I spent years in business-owner networks getting very little from them. One dinner with Rare Company, and I have been hooked ever since.”

Rihui W · Director, AI GEO Technologies

What Eddie and Astan have created is far superior to any traditional business owner networking groups which I've tried in the past. This is the real deal if you want to increase your net worth from your business properly and sustainably.”

Christopher R · Co-CEO, iGaming Tech Suppliers

It's the only room I've been in where nobody tried to sell anything to me or wanted anything from me. I never felt like the smartest, but I often feel like I can add significant value to others in my Circle when talking about their net worth.”

FAQs

Who is Rare Company for?

Established British owners who want a lot more from their business: to grow it substantially, make acquisitions, step back from the day-to-day or reach a significant exit.

You'll fit if you're ambitious, open and willing to give as much as you take. The interview settles it either way, and we'll tell you straight if it isn't right.

Is my business big enough to join?

Our members are typically at £2m-£20m turnover. The minimum is £1m annual turnover or a significant cash exit.

Meeting the minimum doesn't guarantee a place. Ambition matters far more than the number you're doing today.

What happens in a Circle session?

Three hours, in person, led by a founder who has built and sold. Each owner brings their numbers, their challenges and the decisions in front of them.

The table pushes back and shares what's worked, and everyone leaves with commitments that get checked at the next meeting.

Will any of my competitors be members?

Not in your Circle. We never seat direct competitors together, and we check for conflicts before you're matched. If one appears later, we sort it and you come first.

What does membership cost?

The fee is set out on your call with Eddie and Astan. Membership is a twelve-month commitment, there's nothing else to buy, and we never take a share of anything you sell.

How does the application work?

Three steps. You apply and tell us about the company you've built and what you're planning next. You meet Eddie and Astan for a conversation. If there's a fit, you're offered a place in a Circle in your city.

Every applicant is interviewed and vetted.
