Founded in June 2023, Crete Professionals Alliance (Crete PA) aims to drive growth
across accounting and professional service firms in the United States. Our initial
venture in August 2023 involved acquiring a majority interest in the non-attest
assets of a top 300 US-based national firm, positioning us alongside the top 100 US
accounting firms based on cumulative revenue. With over ten partner firms, several
deals under LOI, and substantial committed capital, Crete PA is poised to shortly
become equivalent to a top 40 firm in terms of aggregate revenue, with ambitions
to expand into a multi-country platform. Supported by ZBS Partners, a firm managing over $500 million in assets, and led by co-founders experienced in developing multi-industry platforms, Crete PA partners with local firms to enhance their independence while boosting their revenue and profitability.
