Member Event: Maximise the Value of your Business

Maximise the Value of your Business Tuesday 18th June 2013, 09:15 to 12:30 The Farmers Club, Bury St. Edmunds

Whether you are planning to sell your business or not, maximising the value of the business is a must. This free half day seminar run in conjunction with NatWest and Prism Corporate Broking will take you through 6 essential elements to transform your future by building value – and thereby attractiveness to potential acquirers. You will also hear from a former CEO about what it is really like to go through the sale process.

Who should attend?

This event is aimed at owners/senior managers of private businesses. Whilst the content will be of more immediate interest to those planning to sell, we would like to stress that the underlying theme is about building value in the business and is therefore entirely pertinent to those with longer term plans to exit. The event is also likely to be of interest to those considering acquisitions as it gives insights into what is of value to an acquirer and how valuations are made.

Outline programme:

• Review of the M&A market • Six things you need to know to build value • Selling my business – my perspective • Adding value through the process • Valuation • From a legal perspective • Key stages in the process • Summary, questions and close

What will you gain from it?

• Discover who’s buying who and what’s hot • Find out the six things you need to know to build the value of your business • Find out what it is really like going through the acquisition process from a CEO • Understand how valuations are made in practice

Due to the nature of this event, we respect the fact that some attendees may wish to maintain a degree of anonymity. We will not therefore be issuing name badges nor will we be publishing or otherwise circulating attendee lists. Whilst there will inevitably be some opportunities to network for those who wish so to do, the programme is not structured with this intent.
