IKAN was built to help founders make smarter business decisions through reliable accounting and financial clarity.

Our History

"The battle of building a business is only known to those who have tried to build one"
The Beginning
2006

The Entrepreneurial Battle

In 2006, Peter established a coffee roasting business in Billerica, Masschusetts. Despite being a CPA, having an MBA from Babson College and 8 years of accounting experience, he struggled to build the business and maintain the books. He reached out to his sister, Alice.

The Solution
The Turning Point

The Alice Effect

Alice stepped in and transformed Chaos into clarity. She didn't just do bookkeeping; she simplified the financial and business operations by integrating QuickBooks with the merchant and banking system and prepared timey financial reports, enabling Peter to focus on the business. 

IKAN Today
Present

The Birth of IKAN

After spending 10 years in Africa building Cavendish Africa to provide transformative higher education, Peter approached Alice, who had been running her accounting consulting practice for 15 years with an idea. Alice could not keep up with the demand for accounting services for growing businesses. Cavendish graduates were talented, but professional opportunities were limited. Why not establish a firm to solve both problems - provide accounting support to growing business while creating professional opportunities for talented finance professionals developed through Cavendish. 

The IKAN Difference
