Let’s say for example I have a company that is going to be acquired for $50m and I own half it as a cofounder.

How can I avoid a large tax hit?

I know someone who received $25m from an acquisition and walked away with $6m due to taxes and I want to avoid that nightmare.

All I know so far is that there is something to do with an S-Corp in a state with low/no capital gains tax…

Any other strategies to be aware of?

When you're talking about this amount if money, you really shouldn't be asking volunteers on the Internet for advice. You can't afford not to hire professionals.
