The Next Chapter Starts Here
What Sets Adelanta Apart
I bring Fortune 500 systems and discipline with a small business heart. Unlike typical buyers planning a 3-5 year exit, I'm built for legacy—dedicated to moving your business forward with long-term stewardship and commitment to your community, employees, and customers.
*Adelanta combines "Atlanta" (where I'm currently based) with "adelante" (Spanish for "forward")—reflecting our commitment to progress.
About Pete
I'm Pete Clarke, and I believe great businesses deserve great next chapters. With an MBA from Stanford University and a BBA from Emory University, I've spent 20 years scaling healthcare operations globally.
Key accomplishments include directly leading efforts that have generated more than $2B in revenues by entering new markets, scaling multi-site operations across continents, and conducting various M&A/divestment activities. But the numbers tell only part of the story.
My wife Alycia and our four young children keep me grounded. My values guide every decision. I believe in treating people right, honoring what came before, and building something that moves forward—not just for profits, but for the communities we serve.

Thoughtful Transitions: Experience integrating acquisitions and building teams means smooth, respectful knowledge transfer
