Who says the path to entrepreneurship means starting from scratch? Experience a two-day immersion into the world of buying and scaling an existing business.
This seminar dives into the essentials of searching, evaluating, valuing, negotiating, transitioning, and growing acquired companies. We will use lectures, exercises, guest speakers, expert panels, and classroom discussions to develop the ETA process.
This will be an intensive and highly interactive course. Participants are expected to come prepared to actively question and discuss everything that is presented. A sense of humor would also be greatly appreciated.

Identify and source acquisition targets through real-world search methodologies
Execute rigorous due diligence to uncover hidden risks and opportunities
Develop valuation frameworks and models
Master negotiation tactics for purchase price and deal structure
Secure financing for purchase and growth
Manage ownership transitions and leadership handoffs
