Technology can be built. The decades of pattern recognition behind it cannot be easily replicated.
Tully Ryan is the founder and architect of IQExit™ — the platform, the category, and the thesis that the exit economy’s first-mile problem is an intelligence problem, not an execution one. With 30+ years across M&A advisory, financial services, and venture-backed technology, he built IQExit™ from inside the advisory relationship as Managing Director of Murphy Business, advising on lower middle market sell-side, buy-side, and strategic engagements of $1M–$50M. Co-inventor of U.S. Patent No. 7,904,372 and author of the IQExit™ Buyer Landscape Intelligence series, cited at the Murphy Business national conference in 2026.
Jason Rowe, PhD, brings expertise in business decision-making, behavioral engagement, and applied economic research to IQExit™. An Associate Professor of Marketing and Supply Chain Management, he has led large-scale, data-driven research initiatives examining business conditions, economic trends, and organizational decision-making. His experience spanning academia, B2B marketing, sales, and entrepreneurship helps shape how IQExit turns complex intelligence into advisor engagement, business-owner participation, and more informed decisions.
Erik Taylor leads the design and development of IQExit™’s intelligence architecture — data capture frameworks, scoring methodologies, and longitudinal readiness tracking systems. His background at Morgan Stanley and AIG brings a disciplined, systems-oriented approach to building institutional-grade technology infrastructure. His core strength: translating complex human behavior and organizational decision-making into structured, scalable intelligence.
Jesse Stone leads IQExit™’s institutional partnership development — positioning the platform within trusted advisor relationships across commercial banking, wealth management, CPA, legal, and insurance channels. A consistent top producer at Murphy Business, he designs and maintains the relationship architecture that preserves advisor primacy throughout the transition lifecycle and ensures business owner intent is captured early, before intermediaries are engaged.
IQExit™ brings together experience in M&A advisory, business research, management science, financial services, technology, and institutional partnerships. That combination shapes how the platform identifies, structures, and tracks owner intent—turning decades of domain knowledge into a system designed for the trusted advisory relationship.
