“Diversity Through Acquisition”
San Diego Chapter meeting on February 25
Like your stock portfolio, it is prudent to diversify your business base in order to more adequately balance out the vagaries that occur from dealing in a single product or service offering. The means by which to diversify are many and the timing of this type of strategic effort is very important.
While adding new products or service offerings can be accomplished by means of “starting from scratch,” this approach can be quite slow and costly, resulting in the company falling short of its strategic goals within the time frame desired. An alternative method is to acquire a company or companies who already possess the desired capability and thus attain the next level of growth in a more rapid manner.
Please join us in San Diego on Tuesday, February 25, 2014 (networking at 7:00am, meeting 7:30– 9:00am PST), when Dwayne Junker, Senior Advisor to the President of Epsilon Systems Solutions, Inc., who has been involved in numerous acquisitions from both sides of the transaction, will share his observations of the successful and not-so-successful results of the planning, negotiations, execution and integration related to diversification through acquisition.
The meeting is free for A&D Forum members and $40 for non-members ($30 Early Bird until February 18). Register to attend the meeting at http://adfsdfeb14.eventbrite.com.
