DealQuest Podcast with Corey Kupfer

Corey Kupfer is an attorney and dealmaker who has been negotiating high-stakes business deals for over 30 years, and DealQuest is where he shares everything he's learned along the way. The podcast focuses on what Kupfer calls "deal-driven growth," the idea that strategic acquisitions, partnerships, joint ventures, and capital raises can accelerate a business far faster than organic growth alone. It's a perspective that puts legal and business strategy in the same conversation, which is exactly where M&A professionals live every day. With nearly 400 episodes and a 4.9-star rating, the show has built a loyal following. Episodes run 25 to 50 minutes and feature founders, investment bankers, private equity operators, and fellow deal attorneys who talk candidly about the transactions that shaped their careers. Recent episodes have covered topics like practice transitions, exit planning, navigating multiple acquisitions in tech, and raising startup capital. Kupfer has a knack for getting guests to share the messy, real-world details of getting deals done rather than sticking to polished talking points. The weekly cadence means there's always fresh content, and the archive is a goldmine if you want to study specific deal types or industries. Kupfer's legal background means he naturally gravitates toward the structural and contractual elements of transactions. He asks the follow-up questions a lawyer would ask, and that makes the show especially useful for M&A attorneys, corporate counsel, and business owners who are thinking about their next acquisition or exit.
