Mergers & Acquisitions Town Hall

October 1, 2022

1:15 PM - 2:15 PM PDT

Location: Westgate: Pavilion 6

I'm considering the next steps for my business and would love some expert advice on getting started and what to expect during the M&A process.

Do you ever wonder what the next step will be for your business? Will you grow through acquisition, organic growth or will you sell? This town-hall-style session will start with presentations from both sides of a recent acquisition and educate you on how to get started with the process, what to expect and pitfalls to avoid along the way. The second half of the session will be an open town hall where you can ask questions of the acquirer and acquiree, as well as a broker, who helps make such acquisitions possible.

Objectives:

Consider the next step for your business: growth through acquisition, new stores or selling?
Appraise ways that you can prep your business now for the future in terms of financial reporting and helping to set yourself apart in the market
List things to consider when determining possible companies for acquisition
