CFO Selections has formed a long-term partnership with Laird Norton Company, one of the oldest family-owned enterprises in the United States. Laird Norton has made a minority investment in the firm to support our continued growth and mission.
Laird Norton Company is a diversified, family-owned enterprise headquartered in Seattle. Family-owned for eight generations, they trace their origins to 1855. They take a patient, long-term approach to investing; they have no fund lifecycle, no predetermined exit timeline, and no interest in short-term financial engineering. We chose them as a partner because their values and approach mirror our own.
Since Tom Vargafounded CFO Selectionsin 2002, the firm has been built on a straightforward belief: that growing companies and nonprofits deserve the same caliber of financial leadership that large organizations take for granted. Nearly a quarter century later, we serve clients across Washington, Oregon, Colorado, and Texas through a team of nearly 350 seasoned financial executives and professionals across CFO Selections, ASP, and Valtas Group. This partnership strengthens that mission.
