CLIENT:
ATEK Access Technologies owners hired Aethlon to sell their company.

In late 2023, the owners of ATEK Access Technologies engaged Aethlon to lead the sale of their company. Leveraging our deep industry expertise and extensive network, we conducted a rigorous sales process, reaching out to over 100 potential buyers. After hosting meetings with a small handful of highly interested parties, we identified the right buyer for the company. On August 22, 2024, we successfully closed the sale to private equity firm Sound Growth Partners. This transaction reflects Aethlon’s commitment to executing deals the right way—strategically, thoughtfully, and with a focus on delivering exceptional outcomes for our clients.
