New strategic alliance with Richard D'Antoni expands Strawn Arnold Ashpitz Groover's healthcare technology and services sector

We have joined forces with D'Antoni Partners to expand our capabilities in the healthcare services and healthcare information technology sectors. A national retained search firm, DPI is led by Richard D'Antoni, a 30+ year operating executive now with 10+ years in search. Richard has served in 6 CEO/COO roles, raised numerous rounds of private equity and participated in three IPO’s. In 2007 he was joined by Kent Fannon, a veteran financial and operating executive in healthcare also with large public and smaller private company experience.

"Many venture capital and private equity firms invest in all sectors of healthcare; life sciences, services and technology. Our alliance with D'Antoni Partners will allow us to bring a full range of expertise and networks to our clients' portfolio companies", said Jeff Ashpitz, President.

"We have had the pleasure and success of working on several assignments together over the years and currently" said Richard D'Antoni. "Our firms' partners share not only a common background of having worked in healthcare, but a strong desire to team the best people on any given search assignment. Our shared values and work ethic support our common mission of relentlessly finding impact players who create value".

"Healthcare is increasingly more complex with innovative products requiring special service delivery models," observes John Groover, Managing Partner. "Joining with Richard and his team will allow us to meet the human capital needs of our clients under healthcare reform".
