Books by Rupert Cook

Rupert Cook has experienced technology corporate finance from every angle over the last 20 years. He understands intimately the aspirations and tribulations of technology entrepreneurs, having worked tirelessly as one of the founding team to build up an IT Training and Consultancy business from scratch in the late '80s, the culmination of which was a successful sale to a UK PLC eight years later. Since then, he has bought and sold technology businesses both as a principal and for clients around the world. He has run fund-raisings for early stage businesses and also acted on the other side of the fence as a venture capital investor. Rupert is currently Head of Technology M&A at goetzpartners Corporate Finance, a leading pan-European corporate advisory firm. For five years, Rupert was Head of Advisory Services at a technology investment and advisory business, and has twice run his own corporate finance boutiques. Rupert worked at Capgemini PLC for two years in strategic consulting and business development. Rupert has spoken widely at conferences and in the media on the subjects of Economic & Monetary Union and Technology Corporate Finance. He is the author of 'Leveraging Competitive Advantage from the Euro', published in 1999 by Financial Times Prentice Hall.
