Selling your business is a very complex process. Please join us, along with BB&T, BB&T Capital Markets|Windsor Group, Beers + Cutler, and the Pagnato-Karp Group of Merrill Lynch, for a panel discussion with executives who have recently been involved in a number of M&A transactions. They offer a unique perspective of the M&A process as both sellers and buyers in seeking to maximize value for their shareholders. Come listen to the lessons they have learned, including what they might have done differently, and hear their advice for other executives planning a future exit strategy. In addition, Sterling Phillips will share his insights regarding changing hats from executive to private equity investor and how that has impacted his perspective about buying companies.
