Over 6 million business owners in North America are looking to retire in the next decade. Yet only 9% have a succession plan. Succession AI is an AI-native Mergers & Acquisitions platform for founder-led businesses ($500K to $50M revenue) looking to exit. The venture helps owners understand what their business is worth, prepare for an exit, and connect with the right buyers to transition the business, end-to-end, within one platform. Avril Sun, HBA '25, is the CEO and Co-founder of Succession AI. Born and raised in China, Sun moved to Canada on her own at 13 — an experience that shaped her commitment to building in Canada. She began her career at Boston Consulting Group and TikTok, and was part of NEXT Canada's 2024-25 cohort. An EY Women in Tech 2025 honoree, Sun, and Succession AI, will take the stage in Toronto on June 3rd for the 12th edition of Western Angels' Demo Day. https://bit.ly/420HoFK
