I found Prism Corporate Broking a great help in making this first acquisition. Prism identified a number of suitable acquisition targets, qualified them and then made the first critical approach. This, coming from a third party, made it feel less threatening to the vendors and gave greater flexibility to our negotiating position throughout the transaction. We received no nonsense advice and are now working together on the next one!
Ian Hickson – Abbey Liftcare

Whether you are planning to sell your business or not, maximising the value of the business is a must. This FREE half day seminar in association with Taylor Vinters 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.

Abington Hall Conference Centre, Granta Park, Great Abington, Cambridge, CB21 6GP – Map and directions.
This 18th century mansion sits amid 20 hectares of parkland with ample free parking. Situated just outside Cambridge on the A11/A1307 intersection.
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 time horizons to an 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.
This event is FREE
There will be an opportunity to arrange a short one-to-one meeting with someone from our Corporate Broking team immediately following this seminar. More information will be sent to you about this nearer the time.
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.
