About the 2015 Conference

Succeeding in mergers and acquisitions has never been easy. The integration of a new business following a private acquisition or merger is a daunting and risky prospect. The business world has many failed examples, leading to ruined reputation and loss of shareholder value.  The onus is on you to play a critical role in focussing on the legal aspects of the deal as well as the cultural and post-integration work.

We are therefore delighted to bring you our inaugural event on Mergers and Acquisitions, offering practical case studies from legal teams and their partners who have successfully been a part of a private merger and/or acquisition. It will cover how buyers and sellers determine which deal structure and terms are best for their company, what role they play during the due diligence transactional process, as well as how they select and work effectively with external partners .

It will also offer a totally unique perspective of how to successfully manage the post-integration , such as cultural and board alignment with the new organisation, co-ordinating and mobilising a motivated team as well as integrating different parts of  a global  businesses. Can you afford not to be there?
