Who We Are
Founded in June 2023, Crete Professionals Alliance (Crete PA) aims to drive growth

accounting firms based on cumulative revenue. With over 30 member firms, several
deals under LOI, and substantial committed capital, Crete PA is poised to shortly

Supported by ZBS Partners, a firm managing over $500 million in assets, and led by co-founders experienced in developing multi-industry platforms, Crete PA partners with local firms to enhance their independence while boosting their revenue and profitability.
