Calder Capital, a nationwide mergers and acquisitions advisory firm, is thrilled to welcome Dominik Bepristis as our newest Buy-Side Associate.
Introducing Dominik
Originally from Grand Rapids, Michigan, Dominik brings a background in finance and private equity. He previously held roles as an Accounting Intern at BCN Technical Services, an Accounting and Finance Intern at Specialty Machinery, an Investor Relations Intern at Blackford Capital, and most recently, a Buy-Side M&A Intern at Calder Capital. As of Spring 2025, Dominik will have earned his Bachelor’s in Finance from Davenport University, where he founded and ran the university’s first investment club and led a team in the Association for Corporate Growth Cup M&A case competition. He also served as a Senior Analyst for the GVSU investment club Seidman IPO.
When asked what led him to join Calder Capital, Dominik stated, “the independent and efficient team, along with the overall entrepreneurial spirit and success the firm is experiencing, served as a testament to the value of the services provided.”
Dominik added that he is looking forward to “being around incredibly interesting people at the office and having conversations with business owners as well as our clients during unique and exciting times in their careers.”
Motivated by both his desire to provide for his future family and his commitment to delivering genuine value through his work, Dominik is driven by a strong sense of purpose. Outside of the office, he enjoys pickleball, bouldering, and exploring the outdoors through hiking and camping whenever possible.
In his role as a Buy-Side Associate, Dominik plays a crucial role in assisting buyers throughout their acquisition journey. He conducts market research, refines acquisition criteria, and educates buyers on best practices, ensuring a smooth and effective process. Additionally, he supports Calder’s Buy-Side team in identifying, evaluating, and negotiating acquisition opportunities.
“Dominik’s analytical background and passion for finance have made him a strong asset to our Buy-Side team,” said said Max Friar, Founder and Managing Partner of Calder Capital. “His initiative and dedication to adding value align perfectly with Calder’s mission.
