Do you have the M&A skills and knowledge you need to deliver results for your client?
The M&A market is increasingly demanding and complex. It is imperative that you have a clear understanding of how to structure and negotiate a deal that meets your client’s business goals and legal requirements. Learn how to execute the deal on time while effectively managing the risks.
Now in its 11th edition, this two-day, intensive boot camp from Osgoode Professional Development is designed to teach legal professionals and advisors how to run an M&A transaction from its inception through to closing.
Designed by experienced business lawyers, the program features in-depth discussions with leading practitioners, using practical examples, case studies, templates, and precedents to guide your learning.
If you’re a legal or business professional directly involved in transactions, or advise on certain aspects of them, you will benefit from this opportunity to learn from nationally and internationally recognized speakers, while examining the latest deal trends, structures, pitfalls and opportunities in M&A. You’ll come away from the program with a comprehensive understanding of the key principles and techniques you must know in order to anticipate and confidently deal with issues that may arise in a negotiated transaction.
Registration includes 120-day unlimited, online access to the recorded program.
