Robert Koenig | Source | Founder, CEO at Woodbridge International

Robert Koenig founded Woodbridge in 1993 after having grown Koenig Corporation, an art supply retail distribution and manufacturing company, from $5 million to $100 million in sales. While president of Koenig Corporation, Robert completed 30 add-on acquisitions and drove organic growth to capture 10% of the U.S. art supply market by the time the company was sold to a strategic buyer.

Since leading Woodbridge International, Robert has continued to push the boundaries of what M&A can do. He has pioneered the use of video marketing into its sell-side process creating highly successful presentations that has benefited clients worldwide. He has developed a unique process that confidentially casts the widest net in the industry. And he’s built a proprietary database of 300,000 strategic companies and 4,500 private equity groups that quickly identifies the greatest number of buyers.

Robert’s innovative, marketing-driven approach to M&A and his time-line driven auction have elevated Woodbridge to a well-respected, sell-side middle market force to be reckoned with around the globe.
