Designing mergers and acquisitions that succeed for buyers, sellers, and other stakeholders.

A merger or acquisition continues to be an effective tool for ownership transition and strategic growth in the architecture and engineering industry. Even if you aren't currently considering a sale or acquisition, there's a good chance you will be facing a transaction at some point in the future. This summit is your chance to gain the knowledge you will need to ensure a favorable deal and a successful firm integration that will benefit the buyer, seller, employees, clients and shareholders.

This two-day event features top design and environmental industry executives and entrepreneurs who gather to network and share experiences. The conference faculty is comprised of AEC industry leaders with significant M&A experience, and the information-packed agenda is focused on the tactical logistics and management strategies necessary to make deals that work, no matter what stage you are at in the transaction.
