Skyway is pleased to announce the appointment of Bill Bright as Senior Vice President, bringing more than a decade of experience in business development and deal origination to the firm.
Throughout his career, Bright has worked across global mergers and acquisitions, private equity, family offices and lower middle market investment banking. In his new role at Skyway, he will focus on cultivating relationships with business owners and identifying opportunities where the firm’s M&A and capital markets expertise can help clients achieve their strategic and financial objectives.
“Bill brings a relationship-driven approach that aligns extremely well with how we serve our clients at Skyway,” said Rob Woomer, Chief Executive Officer “His experience working with business owners, combined with his understanding of the lower middle market, will be a valuable addition to our team as we continue to expand our reach and capabilities.”
Bright is particularly passionate about advising founder- and family-owned businesses. He works alongside owners to understand their goals, evaluate strategic alternatives and identify solutions that position both the business and its stakeholders for their next chapter.
“I’m excited to join Skyway and work with a team that shares my commitment to building trusted, long-term relationships with business owners,” said Bright. “For founders and families, decisions about the future of a business are both financial and deeply personal. I look forward to helping clients understand their options and navigate those decisions with confidence.”
Originally from the Midwest, Bright now calls Florida home with his wife and their four children. Outside of work, he enjoys spending time with his family, attending church, cheering on the Tampa Bay Rays, volunteering in his community and visiting Walt Disney World.
