FP Transitions
The evolving industry has fueled acquisition and consolidation, leaving the perception that size and scale win the race. But this is not the full picture: strong, sustainable enterprises come in many sizes. This session reviews practice data from FP Transitions' Valuation Database to contrast advantages and weaknesses across smaller and larger firms and highlight key attributes of sustainable enterprises. Attendees will learn the difference between being the target of investment versus acquisition, and how to remain independent while harnessing private equity. In the battle for talent and growth, are you poised to eat - or be eaten?
