Role at Generation Tech Partners
Sebastian owns the transaction itself: structure, purchase agreement, diligence scope and timeline. His working principle is that diligence should only cover what changes the decision — everything else is friction for a seller who is still running a business.
Sellers who want to understand the mechanics of a share deal versus an asset deal, or how earn-outs are handled, usually end up in a call with him.
