From Military to MBA: A Unique Journey

In this episode, Corbin Butcher recounts his unique journey from German Literature graduate to launching the first search fund in the Czech Republic with his wife, outlining his transformation from US marine to pioneering search fund entrepreneur. Corbin highlights the importance of operating experience and a good partner while discussing what it’s like to blaze a trail in a new country, culminating in his acquisition of Beire Exhibitions.


Some advice from Corbin:

"I guess it doesn’t need to be said that it’s fairly ambitious. You have to have a lot of confidence in your thesis and in what you’re doing."

"if you’re gonna try to blaze a new trail in a new country... I think having a partner, it made all the difference in my search."
