The workshop "Revisiting M&A Target Screening" is an interactive on-site reflection and analysis. During the workshop we will take a look at the current M&A screening landscape (approaches, methods, applications, tools) and draw conclusions on the digital(al)ization of M&A target screening.
Participants from different backgrounds (corporate and mid-market acquirers, small to large consultancies, and solution providers as well as academia) will address questions such as:
- What are the biggest challenges in M&A target selection?
- How can technology facilitate the screening process?
- What are the limitations of technology?
- What digital and/or data skills will M&A managers and advisors have in the future?
The aim of this workshop is not only to conduct a status-quo analysis and facilitate knowledge sharing, but also to connect M&A practice with technology to provide an outlook on meaningful digitized M&A solutions.
