About

An archive, not a feed.

Swapnil Soren

I spent more than five years in audit at Deloitte USI, auditing $1B+ companies with teams across 8 countries. I'm now an IPMX MBA student at IIM Lucknow, moving into finance transformation and consulting.

The research here is an independent archive. Each piece is a permanent, citable dossier — a study of how a company is built, valued, examined, or transformed — or a shorter field note.

It is organised around one enduring question: what makes exceptional companies exceptional? Dossiers are written to be read years from now, not to chase a news cycle. They are revised as understanding deepens, and they keep their identifiers for life.

The numbers were rarely the whole story. Usually something had broken earlier: a process, a handoff, or an assumption no one had checked.

Six research artifacts

Every dossier applies a lens — Company, Public Market Investing, Private Venture Investing, Forensic, or Transformation — with shorter Field Notes for works-in-progress. The archive is the heart of the publication; everything else exists to help you discover another.
