London, UK – October 23, 2014
By invite only, 100-150 key technology thought leaders from growth companies, consolidators, and investment professionals from Europe, USA and Asia to discuss issues of the moment for the M&A industry.
Spaces are filling up and we already have delegates from the US, China and continental Europe.
Agenda
• Are we in another bubble? Will the hype lead to meaningful businesses and transactions?
• Psycho-economics. How do cultural, corporate and individual risk dispositions impact transactions?
• Who funds what in Europe? What funding pools are available and where are they pointed?
• The USA is the biggest M&A practitioner, but Asia’s share is growing rapidly. How do the motivations and expectations in these areas compare?
• The role of London as a (global?) technology and financial services hub in Europe.
