July 14 is a day of revolution for one proud nation. As I write this article, I am in the town where many Patriots awoke 234 years ago, rode a few miles down the road, and fired a collective shot heard round the world which set in motion the revolution for this proud nation.

For me, this July 14 is a day of personal and professional revolution as we proudly announce that Ardent Partners is open for business. Like other revolutions or revolutionaries, we are trying to change the world, at least the part of it that focuses on supply management, our world. Unlike other revolutions, this one will be televised; and occasionally, it will have a soundtrack.

I welcome your comments and feedback.

A quick introduction to Ardent Partners

While we will share more details in the formal announcement of the firm that will accompany the release of Ardent’s first research series this Fall, we are ready to engage, ready to discuss, and ready to share.

Over the next few weeks we hope to engage with clients, prospects, friends, and as many supply management professionals as we possibly can and share Ardent’s strategy and approach in much greater detail. I hope to hear from you.
