Event overview
Mergers and acquisitions can be a good way to enter or expand within the China market, but it is rarely a smooth process for many reasons. Factors specific to China play a big role in M&A deals. Targeting, due diligence, valuation, and deal structure: the list of potential problem areas is long. The current economic climate may present opportunities in some areas, but pose challenges in others.
Following the previous two successful M&A seminars, this seminar in 2009 will provide insights into new opportunities and risks, as well as strategic solutions and practical advice through a comprehensive mix of practical speeches, case studies, and interactive Q&A sessions with leading M&A experts.
