Their expertise will support the strategic minority investor in its mission to help partner independent and breakaway advisors stay ahead of emerging trends and evolving client needs.

"Elevation Point is elevating the industry by leveraging the best technologies and customizing them to fit the unique needs and preferences of advisors and clients, with a relentless focus on strengthening relationships," said Eric Clarke, founding CEO of Orion Advisor Solutions and member of Elevation Point's board of directors. "In the age of AI, independent advisors have unprecedented opportunities to scale through technology, and Elevation Point is leading the way in ensuring that this technology is tailored to drive real, meaningful impact for both advisors and their clients."

Mr. Mikan has a proven track record of building large-scale businesses, leading growth and strategy to create industry leaders.

"In a landscape where most RIAs and breakaway teams are looking to find new ways to scale while staying agile, Elevation Point offers something increasingly valuable—support for growth that won't compromise independence," said Mike Mikan, president and CEO of NeueHealth and member of Elevation Point's board of directors. "I look forward to helping the team optimize its investment strategy and bring innovative, strategic deal structures to our partners."
