Hi Javier, I saw searchers closing their funds and going back to the industry in very interesting positions. They mainly leveraged their experience in two ways:
1. Fund raising: the whole fund raising part is extremely intense, from the road show to negotiating the terms. It can add a lot of value, mainly for companies that foresee a next round of investment or even a potential IPO.
2. Industry knowledge and diversity: searches commonly are exposed to several industries in a short period of time. They learn a lot about multiple industries in dept, with extremely valuable insights. Searches also leverage this aspect when going potentially closing their funds.
I also would like to mention the expansion in their network. During the search, searches expand their network considerably in the region/country their are searching in.
I hope that helps.

Hello Peter, thank you very much for your comments. The points you mention are of great value to share experience and make the processes more effective for those who continue to search or come after. Thanks for sharing.
